No, the reason for the lockdowns was to increase the chance that people will find care in the hospitals.

I shudder at the thought of a government locking people up because a treatment might, at some point in the future, be found.

It is of course besides the point but I find it extremely optimistic to expect that a treatment can be found that will significantly reduce deaths when deaths mostly occur in patients of very advanced age or with significant underlying conditions.
