Singapore has revealed its new approach to living with the Corona Virus. Last week senior minister from the city state announced that in the future Covid would be treated like other endemic diseases such as flu.

Previous goals of zero transmissions, quarantine for travellers and isolation of close contacts would be out, and replaced by breathalyser tests done before going to work or the shops. 

The trade minister, finance minister and health minister of Singapore wrote “The bad news is that Covid-19 may never go away. The good news is that it is possible to live normally with it in our midst.
