Has anyone done the math on whether these lockdown policies have produced objectively better outcomes over the long term?

Given that widespread vaccination does not stop infection from spreading, lockdowns seem arbitrary and pointless. Especially when you consider economic consequences, which also inflicts very real pain and suffering on the populace.

Anecdotally, it doesn't seem to have made any difference at all in the US, state by state.
