There are residual small time tyrant governments in less important countries, but they will fall in line soon.
The media are trying to stir up their final bits of panic, but even the worst fear mongers among them are starting to turn coats. My personal guess is that with the approach of the dreaded fall and a curious lack of high death rates, everyone is ready to move on and not get killed by all the sections of the electorate that one has fucked over in 2020. I have seen inklings of this in the American press, but the elections are still fucking things up on your end. Plus, take into account that the US is about two to four weeks behind in the various pandemic cycles, and I think you guys can expect a significant toning down of the rhetoric in a month or so. There will be some residual BS in time for November 4, but you will see some major signs of change in attitude really soon.
