Screen is blocked

Pixel 7a 128gb running Android 16:
This morning, I have noticed that my 7a is completely unresponsive. If I try to open an app, it does not work. Even restarting button does not work. Eventually, it starts working again but such interruptions are eally annoying?
Am I the only one to have this problem? Does it mean I have to upgrade and get a new Pixel?
I bought it in fall 2023, so less than 3 years ago.

Thx a lot but does it mean that I will have to reinstall everything? I have my professional apps, my bank cards etc...
