Queues formed outside libraries yesterday – the first day that vaccination-differentiated safe management measures kicked in at these locations.
When The Straits Times visited Bishan Public Library at 10am, a counter had been set up at the entrance for staff to check the inoculation status of patrons.
A queue of 20 visitors had formed, with most in line having already scanned the SafeEntry QR codes outside the library.
Once the library opened at 10am, they were able to present their SafeEntry green passes to staff showing that they were fully vaccinated or had a cleared Covid-19 test status.
On Nov 20, the multi-ministry task force on Covid-19 announced the expansion of vaccination-differentiated safe management measures to more venues to reduce the risk of transmission of the virus.
Only fully inoculated individuals, recovered Covid-19 patients, those who are medically ineligible for vaccination or children aged 12 and below are allowed in settings where such measures apply.
