The lockdowns are eroding the legitimacy and respect for authority.

Instead of leading the people, the authorities are fighting with them.

Personally I'd contend that leaders who choose not to take action to protect public health (or even try to deceive their constituents) are eroding the legitimacy and respect for their authority.
