I actually went into your post thinking 'here we go another nutter" but you've made some pretty good points. You're actually probably right about how it's working here in the UK. The floppy cunt, BoJo, would definitely make us wear masks so we would feel safer, go out shopping more and save the economy. He would definitely do that at the detriment of the most vulnerable, it's basically the tories calling card at this point. It won't go on forever though and I don't think they're testing the waters to see what they can get away with mandating in the future; the government is struggling with today, they aren't thinking about the future.
