Spain had pretty severe lockdown until a while ago, which literally stopped covid deaths, taking them down to 5-6 people per week in a ~45 million country. People didnt go out, and whomever went out, wore masks.
Things were pretty good until the restrictions were relaxed for the sake of 'the economy' to feed the tourism sector and especially the stock market. Then cases started rising up.
A looser quarantine was applied after that, which helped the cases again and reduced them a lot, but this time the first variant (UK) came in and skyrocketed weekly cases.
Then it went on and off with varying levels of restrictions for the sake of 'the economy', until delta variant hit pretty, pretty hard.
People are still wearing masks, and maybe half of the population is vaccinated, but new variants coming in from utterly irresponsible countries (UK, India, Brazil) is literally hammering the society, causing people to die.
Still, all things considered, Spain seems to be doing much, much better than almost everyone else, bar countries which did total lockdowns and took strict measures like China, NZ, Taiwan, South Korea or Australia.
