Vaccination first, then reduce restrictions
Vaccination was key. The road map out of the current measures couldn’t begin until more people had been jabbed.
Singapore is set to have given two-thirds of its residents at least one jab within weeks and to have two thirds fully vaccinated by early August.
Singapore has recorded some fully vaccinated locals getting Covid-19, but none of them have had serious symptoms.

Meanwhile, in Australia only 2.8% of the population has been fully vaccinated & 23.91% have had 1 dose (according to a graphic in The Age). For us to think about following Singapore’s lead without doing the work is like a 200 kg couch potato being inspired by the story of a long distance runner to enter a marathon tomorrow without any preparation.

Why has the “rollout” been so poor? Here’s Michelle Grattan’s take: View from the Hill: COVID battle on a knife edge, The Conversation.
