Circuit Breaker had started since Apr 7.
In a short span of 3 days, several new measures are implemented. With an alarming 535 cases confirmed since the start of the Circuit Breakers and the continued defiance to the current measures implemented, a slew of measures was introduced overnight to rein in the habits of Singapore residents to curb the spread.
The bottom line is to STAY HOME this weekend. Unless it is for essentials or medical needs, there are no reason for you to head out to the malls, parks or friends or family houses. If you are heading out for essentials, WEAR A MASK.
Here are the measures were taken over the past days on Circuit Breakers
Apr 6: Close Most Workplaces
The initial measure was to close most workplaces with the essential services exempted as shown below. All other non-essential businesses are to implement Work From Home (WFH) if possible.
