Please provide us with a single example of a right that was been permanently lost in the past that was originally done in the guise of a public health order.
I didn't say it happened due to public health orders. The fact is that governments use emergencies to grab powers, the electorate allows it to happen because "emergency", and then the powers are kept and misused.
There are many examples of the police in the UK misusing powers originally intended to prevent terrorism against people who are clearly nothing todo with terrorism. The legislation was intended to be temporary but becomes permanent and used against the citizenry.
If a government gets special powers when there is an emergency, at some point they will create an emergency to get the special powers. At the very least, they will take advantage of an emergency to extend their powers and avoid oversight.
