Can we live with COVID-19? Singapore tries to blaze a path 

Relaxed restrictions have sent cases soaring. Reopening plans have been delayed and some restrictions have been re-imposed, giving lockdown-weary Singaporeans a renewed sense of deja vu.

 The government has called the increase a “rite of passage” as the island nation adapts and adjusts its hoped-for model of living with – as opposed to eradicating – the virus and its variants.

Public hospitals are seeing a surge in the number of patients but the vast majority – more than  98 percent – are asymptomatic or with mild symptoms, so health officials are now urging them to go to a general practitioner or clinic to free up hospitals for urgent care.

On Saturday, health officials expanded home recovery as the default care management model for fully vaccinated COVID-19 patients aged 12 to 69 without severe symptoms. Seven in 10 patients are expected to qualify for home recovery under the new scheme, which is designed to relieve the pressure from growing caseloads on hospitals, intensive care units, and the healthcare community’s capacity to cope with what feels like an endless battle.

これは参考になるね。

シンガポールはすでに８割程度がフルチンなわけだが、制限をゆるめたら感染数が増加、再度制限を課すことになった。もっとも、これは新たな局面にうつる通過儀礼なようなものだ、と。

入院患者は増えたが、９８％は無症状ないし軽症。今後は自宅療養が原則で、一般の医師に診てもらうようにして、大病院は重症患者専門にする、と。

新たな日常の局面にははいるものの、しかし、マスク着用やソーシャールディスタンスは当分続くだろう、と。

ワクチン接種促進　×　３回目ワクチン接種の開始

→コロナ２類から５類へ

→店内マスク着用、三密回避しながら、経済活動再開へ

こんな感じになるだろうか？

とにかく、ワクチン接種体制の整備をしっかりお願いしたい。
