This figure shows Covid-19 cases and deaths explosion in Singapore, although fully vaccinated reached 82% of the country’s population.
In October, the average daily confirmed and death numbers are 3.172 and 9 cases, respectively. In contrast, it is about 963 cases and one mortality in September, while in August, it is just at 85 infections and one fatality. This situation put the country city at danger level.
We can learn from Singapore experience that not leaving health protocols even fully vaccinated has closed to all populations. On the other side, our complete vaccination is just 25% of all Indonesia’ citizens. []
