Covid-19 measures saved Singapore's resident unemployment from reaching 7.5% in 2021: MOF study
This according to a paper by the MOF examining the impact of Covid-19 measures on Singapore's economy and businesses, which also found that the measures supported Singapore's real GDP growth in 2020 by 6.6 percentage points and kept resident unemployment 2 percentage points lower than it would have been.
It also said about 8,000 Covid-19 deaths were avoided between Aug 1 and Dec 31 last year due to Singapore's public health measures and vaccination drive.
