As of April 7, 2022, the total number of COVID-19 cases in Singapore amounted to around 1.1 million. There has been a decrease in daily cases in Singapore this week, though the number is still expected to rise largely due to the highly-contagious Omicron variant.

Overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic Singapore was one of the few countries worldwide that had managed to successfully control the spread of COVID-19. This was done through imposing a strict lockdown period during the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, introducing and enforcing hygiene and social-distancing rules, and effective contact tracing, among others. The measures in place had the intended impact, as the number of daily recorded cases have decreased to manageable levels. Furthermore, community transmission has been reduced to just several cases a week; the majority of the daily new cases of COVID-19 recorded were from overseas arrivals.

Recovering from the economic impact of COVID-19 The closure of businesses, compounded by the global restrictions on movement, had had an adverse effect on its economy. Singapore went through its worse recession on record, while the resident unemployment rate increased. However, with restrictions in the country easing, economists have raised their forecasts for economic growth in Singapore for 2021.

Singapore is currently one out of more than 200 countries and territories battling the novel coronavirus. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

On November 4, 2022, Singapore recorded 3,128 new confirmed cases of COVID-19. Although the number of daily cases is started to decline, Singapore is still expecting a rise in cases caused by the highly-contagious Omicron variant.

As of April 7, 2022, 416 people in Singapore were hospitalized due to COVID-19. Out of these, 44 cases required oxygen supplementation, while 15 in the ICU. To date, 1,290 deaths have so far been attributed to COVID-19.

State of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in Singapore As of February 2, 2022, Singapore had registered more than 362 thousand confirmed cases of COVID-19. Despite having an 88 percent COVID-19 vaccination rate, the country has been going through a surge in COVID-19 infections now caused by the highly-contagious Omicron variant. This has led to delays in its plans to reopen the country for a 'return to normal'.

Gradual return to normalcy? Due to the current increase in COVID-19 infections, Singapore has pushed back plans to remove the restrictions imposed to control the pandemic, with the Prime Minister estimating that it would be another three to six months before the 'new normal' could begin. This was to prevent the healthcare system from being overstressed. While vaccination rates remain high, hospitalization rates have increased, with the majority of those hospitalized being unvaccinated.

**U.S. county-level characteristics relevant to COVID-19 **

Chin, Kahn, Krieger, Buckee, Balsari and Kiang (forthcoming) show that counties differ significantly in biological, demographic and socioeconomic factors that are associated with COVID-19 vulnerability. A range of publicly available county-specific data identifying these key factors, guided by international experiences and consideration of epidemiological parameters of importance, have been combined by the authors and are available for use:

Project Tycho datasets contain case counts for reported disease conditions for countries around the world. The Project Tycho data curation team extracts these case counts from various reputable sources, typically from national or international health authorities, such as the US Centers for Disease Control or the World Health Organization. These original data sources include both open- and restricted-access sources. For restricted-access sources, the Project Tycho team has obtained permission for redistribution from data contributors. All datasets contain case count data that are identical to counts published in the original source and no counts have been modified in any way by the Project Tycho team, except for aggregation of individual case count data into daily counts when that was the best data available for a disease and location. The Project Tycho team has pre-processed datasets by adding new variables, such as standard disease and location identifiers, that improve data interpretability. We also formatted the data into a standard data format. All geographic locations at the country and admin1 level have been represented at the same geographic level as in the data source, provided an ISO code or codes could be identified, unless the data source specifies that the location is listed at an inaccurate geographical level. For more information about decisions made by the curation team, recommended data processing steps, and the data sources used, please see the README that is included in the dataset download ZIP file.

On March 23, 2020, there were 48 imported cases of COVID-19 compared to six cases of local transmission. Imported cases are those in which the patient contracted the novel coronavirus while overseas. Singapore, along with Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China, is experiencing a so-called second wave of COVID-19 infections, brought into the country by Singapore citizens and residents returning from overseas.

As of February 2020, 64 percent of Singaporean respondents believed that number of COVID-19 cases would go up locally. Between February 18, the date of the survey, to mid March, the number of people diagnosed with the coronavirus increased from 81 to 178.

In past 24 hours, Singapore, Asia had N/A new cases, N/A deaths and N/A recoveries.

As of March 25, 2020, the largest age group among Singaporeans confirmed to have COVID-19 were those between 20 to 29 years old, with 141 such cases. These were mostly Singaporeans who had returned from their studies or travels overseas, especially Europe and North America. At the time of writing, Singapore is experiencing a second wave of novel coronavirus infections. This was mostly brought into the country from returning Singapore citizens and residents.

As of April 2020, entering the first week of circuit breaker measures to restrain the spread of COVID-19 in Singapore, 30 percent of the respondents who developed COVID-19 symptoms (such as dry cough, fever, loss of sense of taste or smell, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing), stated that they always self-isolated themselves the following seven days. In response to the growing number of new cases, Singapore announced on 3 April a set of preventive "circuit breaker" measures. This period was to last until June 1.

On June 25, 2020, a total of 36,604 patients with COVID-19 in Singapore have recovered. As of that date, around 42.7 thousand people had been infected with the novel coronavirus in Singapore. The country has since introduced strict restrictions on movement to slow down the spread of the novel coronavirus. Those caught flouting the restrictions would be fined 300 Singapore dollars on the spot.

Singapore is currently one out of more than 200 countries and territories battling the novel coronavirus. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

Background The proportion of asymptomatic carriers and transmission risk factors of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) among household and non-household contacts remains unclear. In Singapore, extensive contact tracing by the Ministry of Health for every diagnosed COVID-19 case, and legally enforced quarantine and intensive health surveillance of close contacts provided a rare opportunity to determine asymptomatic attack rates and SARS-CoV-2 transmission risk factors among community close contacts of patients with COVID-19. Methods This retrospective cohort study involved all close contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Singapore, identified between Jan 23 and April 3, 2020. Household contacts were defined as individuals who shared a residence with the index COVID-19 case. Non-household close contacts were defined as those who had contact for at least 30 min within 2 m of the index case. All patients with COVID-19 in Singapore received inpatient treatment, with access restricted to health-care staff. All close contacts were quarantined for 14 days with thrice-daily symptom monitoring via telephone. Symptomatic contacts underwent PCR testing for SARS-CoV-2. Secondary clinical attack rates were derived from the prevalence of PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 among close contacts. Consenting contacts underwent serology testing and detailed exposure risk assessment. Bayesian modelling was used to estimate the prevalence of missed diagnoses and asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2-positive cases. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression models were used to determine SARS-CoV-2 transmission risk factors. Findings Between Jan 23 and April 3, 2020, 7770 close contacts (1863 household contacts, 2319 work contacts, and 3588 social contacts) linked to 1114 PCR-confirmed index cases were identified. Symptom-based PCR testing detected 188 COVID-19 cases, and 7582 close contacts completed quarantine without a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR test. Among 7518 (96·8%) of the 7770 close contacts with complete data, the secondary clinical attack rate was 5·9% (95% CI 4·9-7·1) for 1779 household contacts, 1·3% (0·9-1·9) for 2231 work contacts, and 1·3% (1·0-1·7) for 3508 social contacts. Bayesian analysis of serology and symptom data obtained from 1150 close contacts (524 household contacts, 207 work contacts, and 419 social contacts) estimated that a symptom-based PCR-testing strategy missed 62% (95% credible interval 55-69) of COVID-19 diagnoses, and 36% (27-45) of individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection were asymptomatic. Sharing a bedroom (multivariable odds ratio [OR] 5·38 [95% CI 1·82-15·84]; p=0·0023) and being spoken to by an index case for 30 min or longer (7·86 [3·86-16·02]; p<0·0001) were associated with SARS-CoV-2 transmission among household contacts. Among non-household contacts, exposure to more than one case (multivariable OR 3·92 [95% CI 2·07-7·40], p<0·0001), being spoken to by an index case for 30 min or longer (2·67 [1·21-5·88]; p=0·015), and sharing a vehicle with an index case (3·07 [1·55-6·08]; p=0·0013) were associated with SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Among both household and non-household contacts, indirect contact, meal sharing, and lavatory co-usage were not independently associated with SARS-CoV-2 transmission. Interpretation Targeted community measures should include physical distancing and minimising verbal interactions. Testing of all household contacts, including asymptomatic individuals, is warranted.

Dengue, a mosquito-transmitted viral disease, has posed a public health challenge to Singapore residents over the years. In 2020, Singapore has been experiencing an unprecedented dengue outbreak. As of 7 Sep, the cumulative number of dengue cases for this year stands at more than 28300. We collect a dataset of weekly dengue cases with the locality of each case. Specifically, our dataset captures all dengue cases that are reported from 15 Feb to 9 July in 2020, which covers the nationwide lockdown period from 7 April to 1 June for controlling the pandemics of COVID-19. The locality is matched to spatial units with a high resolution, with an average coverage of only about 1.35 km2. The dengue case dataset with such a fine-grained resolution could provide materials for either revealing dengue transmission pattern, or researching on the effects of lockdown on dengue spreading dynamics. The resulting weekly dengue case records with geographical locality are released in simple formats for easy access to facilitate studies on dengue epidemics.

On June 25, 2020, 305 patients with COVID-19 were discharged from Singapore hospitals and self-isolation facilities. As of that date, around 42.7 thousand people had been infected with the novel coronavirus in Singapore, and around 36.6 thousand people have recovered. The country has since introduced a stimulus package worth 48 billion Singapore dollars to help the Singapore economy, which had been badly hit by the pandemic.

Singapore is currently one out of more than 200 countries and territories battling the novel coronavirus. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.
