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.

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.

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 recorded 2414394 Coronavirus Cases since the epidemic began, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In addition, Singapore reported 1722 Coronavirus Deaths. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for Singapore Coronavirus Cases.

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.

JHU Has Stopped Collecting Data As Of 03/10/2023

After three years of around-the-clock tracking of COVID-19 data from around the world, Johns Hopkins has discontinued the Coronavirus Resource Center’s operations.

The site’s two raw data repositories will remain accessible for information collected from 1/22/20 to 3/10/23 on cases, deaths, vaccines, testing and demographics.

Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) epidemiological data since 22 January 2020. The data is compiled by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering (JHU CCSE) from various sources including the World Health Organization (WHO), DXY.cn, BNO News, National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China (NHC), China CDC (CCDC), Hong Kong Department of Health, Macau Government, Taiwan CDC, US CDC, Government of Canada, Australia Government Department of Health, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), Ministry of Health Singapore (MOH), and others. JHU CCSE maintains the data on the 2019 Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 (2019-nCoV) Data Repository on Github.

Fields available in the data include Province/State, Country/Region, Last Update, Confirmed, Suspected, Recovered, Deaths.

On 23/03/2020, a new data structure was released. The current resources for the latest time series data are:

• time_series_covid19_confirmed_global.csv
• time_series_covid19_deaths_global.csv
• time_series_covid19_recovered_global.csv

---DEPRECATION WARNING---
The resources below ceased being updated on 22/03/2020 and were removed on 26/03/2020:

• time_series_19-covid-Confirmed.csv
• time_series_19-covid-Deaths.csv
• time_series_19-covid-Recovered.csv

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

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Based on a comparison of coronavirus deaths in 210 countries relative to their population, Peru had the most losses to COVID-19 up until July 13, 2022. As of the same date, the virus had infected over 557.8 million people worldwide, and the number of deaths had totaled more than 6.3 million. Note, however, that COVID-19 test rates can vary per country. Additionally, big differences show up between countries when combining the number of deaths against confirmed COVID-19 cases. The source seemingly does not differentiate between "the Wuhan strain" (2019-nCOV) of COVID-19, "the Kent mutation" (B.1.1.7) that appeared in the UK in late 2020, the 2021 Delta variant (B.1.617.2) from India or the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) from South Africa.

The difficulties of death figures

This table aims to provide a complete picture on the topic, but it very much relies on data that has become more difficult to compare. As the coronavirus pandemic developed across the world, countries already used different methods to count fatalities, and they sometimes changed them during the course of the pandemic. On April 16, for example, the Chinese city of Wuhan added a 50 percent increase in their death figures to account for community deaths. These deaths occurred outside of hospitals and went unaccounted for so far. The state of New York did something similar two days before, revising their figures with 3,700 new deaths as they started to include “assumed” coronavirus victims. The United Kingdom started counting deaths in care homes and private households on April 29, adjusting their number with about 5,000 new deaths (which were corrected lowered again by the same amount on August 18). This makes an already difficult comparison even more difficult. Belgium, for example, counts suspected coronavirus deaths in their figures, whereas other countries have not done that (yet). This means two things. First, it could have a big impact on both current as well as future figures. On April 16 already, UK health experts stated that if their numbers were corrected for community deaths like in Wuhan, the UK number would change from 205 to “above 300”. This is exactly what happened two weeks later. Second, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly which countries already have “revised” numbers (like Belgium, Wuhan or New York) and which ones do not. One work-around could be to look at (freely accessible) timelines that track the reported daily increase of deaths in certain countries. Several of these are available on our platform, such as for Belgium, Italy and Sweden. A sudden large increase might be an indicator that the domestic sources changed their methodology.

Where are these numbers coming from?

The numbers shown here were collected by Johns Hopkins University, a source that manually checks the data with domestic health authorities. For the majority of countries, this is from national authorities. In some cases, like China, the United States, Canada or Australia, city reports or other various state authorities were consulted. In this statistic, these separately reported numbers were put together. For more information or other freely accessible content, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.

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.

A survey conducted on Singaporeans during the COVID-19 pandemic found that the share of respondents who rated the government's performance as excellent decreased in April 2020. Singapore started seeing an surge in COVID-19 cases beginning in late March, and currently has over 11 thousand cases, the highest in Southeast Asia.
