Social distancing has been heavily emphasized by all countries across the globe. This is a term relatively new and alien term to many of us, not just Singaporeans. We're used to queuing up like sardines in a tin can.

What does it really mean for us Singaporeans?

Restaurants and businesses have tried to place tape markings to demarcate queues, some have halved its tables and chairs at various outlets. But do Singaporeans really know how to work with the markings given? Some of the markings are too near due to space constraint and are not slots for you to stand in, they are supposed to provide safe distancing for you to stand at least 1m apart.

Post the social distancing measures you've observed in this thread. 

First two correct, the rest wrong. Bad example (pic taken from our Minister CCS's fb page)

 

Social distancing in a wedding. Tables further apart. Lesser people in one table.

Social distancing in Our Tampines Hub. Honestly should just cancel this. Just watch movie at home this period la. Our Tampines Hub has also been actively telling people not to stay home, join the outdoor/family activities. A little irresponsible this period of time, sending the wrong message across.

Many of us laugh at this arrangement. Will you adhere to this? If the lift is too packed, how? Wait for the next one lor. Or walk down the stairs if you're heading down. Why squeeze?

Zero social distancing at Shake Shack despite the tiny black markings on the floor.

Minimal social distancing observed for the first two. After that, who cares? 😫

Social distancing in Chinatown.

Pretty hard isn't it?

Toast Box? 

Social distancing is about standing at least 1m away from each other. The lines are not slots for you to stand in. Stand on or as near to the front line as possible so the person behind you can do the same.

The authorities can't babysit us in every aspect. If you're queuing up for food, make a conscious effort to keep a distance from the next person even if there's no marking on the ground. If someone is standing too closely to you, step aside or ask the person to watch his or her distance. If the restaurant is too packed and nobody is adhering to social distancing, go to the next, do takeaway, call food delivery (ask the rider to place the food outside, minimize contact)

We can make our own judgment, right?

Most importantly, if you are unwell, stay home, see a doctor. Practice good social responsibility.

Shake Shack are neil road are surprisingly full house when i reach there, and the part i hate the most, those cashier are not even wearing mask!!! i regret visited them.

I will say a thanksgiving at the end of the day if whole day no one sneezes or coughs beside me.

If there is someone who coughs or sneezes beside me, I will say a special prayer, and shower a bit longer when home.

If that person no cough or sneezes directly at you, still no need so scare.
