Frankly, if the newer strain was already seeded (likely) then it would have made very little difference as even one or two rogue cases would have started to spread quickly as soon as restrictions were lessened. Unless you're talking a full lockdown until 70+% of the population is vaccinated, which realistically will be 2022, and thus impossible.
