Experts: Time for Singapore to firm up Covid-19 exit strategy

Experts say there is little to be gained by delaying exit measures beyond this month. - ST SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Singapore should implement its exit strategy from Covid-19 restrictions soon, given that the number of people stepping up to be vaccinated has tailed off. These days, only about 8,000 are coming forward daily for their first dose. As at Aug 3, 4.33 million people had received at least one dose of the vaccine against Covid-19. It is only fair to give these people time to get their second dose, and the two weeks needed for their immunity to build up for maximum protection.

Right time for some easing of Covid-19 measures: Experts

0 Engagements It has been almost two weeks since tightened restrictions kicked in under phase two (heightened alert), and some infectious disease experts believe that safety measures could be eased come the halfway point this week. On July 22, Singapore adopted heightened safety measures that will last until August 18. The measures were put in place following rising community infections linked to the KTV cluster and the Jurong Fishery Port cluster. Currently, dining in is not allowed and the group size for social gatherings has been reduced from five to two, among other measures. Finance Minister Lawrence Wong, who is co-chair of the multi-ministry task force tackling the pandemic, had said the measures will be reviewed after two weeks and adjustments would be considered depending on the Covid-19 situation.
