I'd actually really love any answers here - has anyone investigated this question? Lots of people making blanket assumptions with no evidence, but I've yet to see an actual analysis @Adam_Creightonhttps://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1263201123424366592 …
Perhaps, but as I'm sure you know economies are complex things. Risk has a huge impact (my friends in the construction industry, for example, report that long-term projects were down enormously long before lockdowns) and so do deaths

Sweden, which took a much looser stance on government regulation, is experiencing a similar economic downturn to its neighbours, which did not. I think the economic impact is likely to be far more complex than lockdowns = bad

Of course it would. It's a small open economy. That doesn't show total lockdowns are the right decision in general. Moreover, GDP puts zero value on freedom of movement and choice.
