Today, life in Singapore with COVID19 is disrupted (or "slightly inconvenienced") by pervasive temperature scans & information-taking.
We're talking about every building, office, mall, hospital.
Large events (>250 people) are still canceled, but other than that, life goes on.
What they didn't do:
- area-wide lockdowns
- edict to close businesses
- weld people shut in their apartments
- press to call government officials' actions racist
- punish whistleblowers
- care about "looking bad," thereby obscuring reality
How:
- travel restrictions (they did this early)
- isolated infections
- aggressive contact-tracing procedures
- levied tough penalties for not following quarantines
- punished those who provided false info
- effective communication that struck right balance
- full transparency
Life in Singapore (243 cases, 0 deaths) has pretty much returned to normal.
People are walking around, mostly without masks. Shops & restaurants are open.
Big events & school activities such as tournaments were canceled, but schools remained open unless there was a case.
When people criticise the government about their actions on COVID 19, itโs exactly like going to the doctor and not following his advise. Please people, letโs follow guidelines of Community Quarantine and letโs all make it work! Our health and our lives depend on it!

Weโve sold concentrated refills for nearly a decade at @SCJohnson. The growing awareness of the #plasticwaste crisis, I hope, inspires more people to give refills a try. Itโs an easy step toward a lot less plastic.
