Coronavirus infections in Singapore have sharply risen since April with clusters at foreign worker dormitories accounting for more than 90% of total cases. Hundreds of new dormitory infections continue to be reported daily, while cases among citizens and permanent residents in the wider community are often in single digits.The low rate of transmission outside the worker dormitories has paved the way for Singapore to ease its restrictive “circuit breaker” measures introduced in early April. But the formal expiry of the partial lockdown won’t entail a return to business as usual as the wealthy city-state intends to reopen its economy over several months.
