With seven in 10 Singaporeans saying the Covid-19 outbreak has lasted longer than they anticipated, people are becoming weary of the rules to limit the spread of the virus, according to a Sunday Times survey of 1,000 people.
These rules include a ban on gatherings of more than five, and the need to mask up when outside.
It is natural for coronavirus fatigue to set in, according to experts such as Professor Teo Yik Ying, dean of the National University of Singapore’s (NUS) Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health.
“Wearing a mask every time we step out of the house is really not normal behaviour for us,” he said, but the experts also agree that the authorities need to manage this to ensure Singapore’s collective guard against the virus is not let down.
