Singapore entered Phase 2 on May 16 amid a spike in COVID-19 community cases. Social gatherings were reduced to a maximum of two people and dining-in at F&B outlets banned. The tightened restrictions are to last until Jun 13.

Mr Lee said on Monday that Singapore is on track to bring the COVID-19 outbreak under control, and restrictions may be eased after Jun 13 if the situation continues to improve. DIY tests will soon be available over the counter at pharmacies as the country looks to test more widely to respond to virus mutations.These can be administered by people who are worried that they may have COVID-19, or by frontline workers who want to test themselves frequently, said Mr Lee.

People who appear well will also now be routinely tested in normal work, social or community settings to make these places safe, marking a shift in Singapore's testing approach.Following Mr Lee's address, the co-chairs of the ministerial task force on COVID-19 will hold a press conference.
