On April 3, 2020, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced in a televised speech that his government’s “decisive move” against the country’s “escalating” Covid-19 infections would be “like a circuit breaker.” He explained that for the next month the government would close all workplaces except those of key economic sectors and essential services; have all schools and universities shift to home-based, online learning; and impose tighter restrictions on individuals’ freedom to interact with those outside of their household.
