SINGAPORE — While plans to reintroduce the mask-wearing rule have been stood down after the Covid-19 XBB wave subsided "much earlier than expected", Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said on Monday (Oct 31) that the public must expect some infection controls and regulations to be reinstated should a new and more severe infection wave hit.
Speaking at the HMI Institute’s 20th anniversary and graduation ceremony, Mr Ong revealed that the Government was on the verge of making people wear masks again due to the rising cases caused by the coronavirus strain XBB recently.
