Some of what you've mentioned is much looser than in the UK.
Here all hospitality and non-essential shopping is all closed - no pubs or restaurants, no shops/stores open unless they sell food. Hotels can open for certain specific purposes connected to the pandemic or moving home. The mantra is "Stay at Home" apart from short exercise sessions, medical visits and food shopping.
There's now talk our government may tighten things further because the infection rates are still horrifyingly high, hospitals are overwhelmed by the numbers of Covid-19 patients, medical staff are physically and emotionally exhausted and it's expected there will be weeks more before any beneficial effect of mass vaccination is evident in hospital admissions.
I fear a lot of individuals still deny or underestimate the seriousness of our situation.
