Singapore returned to the lockdown-like conditions it last imposed a year ago, banning all services like dining-in and limiting gatherings to two people, as a rising number of untraceable virus infections pressures one of the most successful places in the world at Covid containment.
For four weeks from 16 May to 13 June , gathering sizes and household visitors will be cut to a maximum of two people from five people now, working from home will be the default, and food places can only do takeaways and deliveries, the health ministry said in a statement on Friday.
Rules in Singapore have to follow for the next month :
- Fewer people allowed in shopping malls and showrooms.
- A maximum of 100 people allowed at business meetings and live performances with pre-event testing, and up to 50 people without such testing.
- Operating capacity at attractions cut to 25% from the current permissible capacity of 50%.
- Wedding receptions will not be allowed.
Government closed the airport terminals and connecting Jewel shopping mall to the public for two weeks from May 13, though it remains open for air travel. It has also been testing workers in the facilities.
