Rules/restrictions/laws are often a matter of what people can do with their popularity/support (power) and money.
As long as the restrictions were more popular with most people than using their own brains to determine what they should and shouldn't do, they would keep piling on, rather than end. Some things don't end without a fight.

If the unintended side effect of restrictions and lockdowns is premature death by heart problems and lack of the kind of activity people got before the pandemic, what good are the lockdowns? Telling people there is a new normal, and giving them guidelines on how to exercise in it will never keep them as healthy as they were before the restrictions and lockdowns. The bullshit is bad for everybody, though the people and entities behind the lockdowns and restrictions are never going to openly admit that it's bad for people.
The restrictions and lockdowns are going to endanger and kill some people anyway, so what's the point? In reality, life is worth losing, that's what a scientist, someone in the business of healthcare, the WHO, the government, the media, or anybody else making money off the pandemic isn't going to tell anybody.

When a person talks too much at the movies and distracts you from paying attention, you put them on talk restriction. Meaning they're not allowed to talk about random/pointless stuff until the movie is over. This is very hard for some, but it will make your expeirence more enjoyable.

When someone tells you that virus restrictions will end, they're usually assuming you think that they will end without you having to fight for it to end.
If the case numbers went up before each executive order on one phase was set to expire, what do people think will happen on the next phase? Another bullshit setback, another bullshit extension of virus restrictions.
