Do you think the national lockdown is effective?

Some people don’t follow the rules put in place, so the lockdown isn’t effective. It would be if people would just listen and comply to the rules.

A 21 day lockdown won’t help us to stop the virus from spreading, it will need more time, but obviously our economy won’t allow it and people don’t obey the rules.

The lockdown might have helped a bit to curb the spread of the virus, but our country being downgraded to junk status is more concerning to me.
