I'm not a lawyer. But I do subscribe to a newspaper, and from what I read, there is an actual emergency.

Yes, and it's up to governments to change any laws that need changed. Your examples are rubbish and don't justify this attack on copyright, even if the examples were true, it's up to the publishers to make them available. This is a large scale massive violation of copyright that that has been going on for years. The covid-19 pandemic is just an cynical attempt by the Internet Archive to get public support for their violation of copyright and attack on it.
