How are you ever going to get people to stop ‘spreading around’ as you put it and what good would it do? We’ve already had a lockdown, and yet the perishing thing has returned already.

New Zealand appears to have reached a stage of where the virus has "died" out. If everybody else managed that, then worldwide there would be no problem.
Any lockdowns haven't worked because people ARE NOT BEHAVING THEMSELVES.
Although on a bigger scale, your New Zealand example PROVES that lockdowns can work. Self-isolation and controlled access with other countries is equivalent to a household situation.
