In Greek Mythology - Pandora was given a box or a jar, called “pithos” this box contained sickness, death and many other unspecified evils and she was told you must never open it.

Pandora opened this box which were then released into the world, she was scared, because she saw all the evil spirits coming out and tried to
close the box as fast as possible, closing Hope inside.
Pandora's Box from this story has grown the idiom "to open a Pandora's box", meaning to do or start something that will cause many unforeseen problems.

I believe what the UK Government and other Governments are doing by easing restrictions early is just that or was it let out when the virus started.

I think that Pandora’s box was opened in Wuhan!
And every government globally is desperately trying to put everything back together again
