Meanwhile, 2,187,709 individuals have received their second dose and now deemed fully vaccinated against the coronavirus.

Maintain good hygiene & stay safe

With Singapore making good progress in vaccination efforts and keeping community cases low, more people can dine in together from 12 Jul.

You can keep up with the suite of newly relaxed measures here.

However, we must also remember that this isn’t the time to be complacent. In fact, safe management measures are all the more essential to keep the outbreak at bay.

Do continue to maintain good hygiene and a safe distance from others when you’re out.
