The World Health Organisation warned yesterday that recovering from the disease Covid-19 may not protect people from reinfection as governments around the world start to ease restrictions to revive economies battered by weeks of closure.
Sri Lanka said it would lift a nationwide curfew tomorrow after more than five weeks, as Belgium joined other European nations to announce an easing from the middle of next month. "There is currently no evidence that people who have recovered from Covid-19 and have antibodies are protected from a second infection," WHO said."People who assume that they are immune to a second infection because they have received a positive test result may ignore public health advice."
Experts in Singapore have stressed that while the overall figures here appear to be moderating, they need to fall consistently for a few days before one can safely say that Singapore is on a surer footing in terms of containing the Covid-19 situation. Since last Wednesday, foreign workers have not been allowed to leave their dormitories until May 4. The Government has also whittled down the number of essential services allowed to remain open.
