It's the people who have less that are suffering and this is something that every government want to address as soon as possible because they are the one suffering the most, the scenario looks bleak for the poor, either they let the economy to open slowly or they keep giving the poor people support so they can follow the rules and lock themselves in their house.
 

Iran is one country that wants to immediately normalize life. Although the number of sufferers is still increasing every day. The government wants to normalize life soon because of the uncertainty of the end of the plague. If activities continue to be restricted the country will soon collapse.

Although the pandemic cannot yet be tamed, Iran has chosen to move, because Iran cannot ask anyone for help in the middle of an embargo. But the normalization that is meant here is not free but there are basic health protocols that must be followed. Shops, restaurants, factories, places of worship may be fully operational but must wash their hands diligently, keep their distance, and wear masks.

Iran is not using herd immunity, but rather the method of "disobedience, please bear the consequences yourself" Although there are still increasing victims and decreasing hospital capacity. Lockdown in Iran is only used to get a shock effect in the community so that people are more aware and concerned about the dangers of COVID-19. After the lockdown, the community is considered more aware and ready to face COVID-19. Prevention efforts lie in the choice of the community and the risk borne by each individual wanting to survive or die.
