The term "lockdown" has been loosely used. "Lockdown" usually means people are confined to their homes, like a prisoner confined to a cell. Understand the Netherland will only the essential shop to be opened. Other non-essential shops, schools, bars, restaurants and other public venues will be closed this coming Christmas. They said the previous order in November about 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. closure of bars, restaurants, and most stores would continue until Jan. 14.

The Chinese don't even dare to open up because they have zero confidence of their vaccine.

Face with same Omicron
Why the Netherlands govt is different from Singapore?
Why Dutch leaders act and acted fast while Singapore leaders just sit and watch?
Do nothing.
Singapore politicians are paid far more than the Dutch.

Singapore cannot afford lockdowns, bad for economy. Somemore lockdowns and booster shot campaign cannot go together, if lockdown, all stay home, booster shot unnecessary as people seldom go out, thus booster campaign failed. So if they wanna promote vaccines, cannot lockdown.

China cannot put the lives of these people to such a high risk.
China worry for the 1.4 billion people, regardless vaccinated or not.

Can't, they cannot let those vaccinated roam around to infect others too....
