COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore
The COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore is part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 () caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (). The first case in :Singapore was confirmed on 23 January 2020. Early cases were primarily imported until local transmission began to develop in February and March. By late-March and April, COVID-19 clusters were detected at multiple sleeping quarters, for which soon contributed to an overwhelming proportion of new cases in the country.

On 22 January 2020, a multi-ministerial committee was formed with then-Minister for National Development Lawrence Wong and then-Minister for Health Gan Kim Yong as the co-chairs and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Heng Swee Keat as advisors. On 23 April 2021, Lee announced the appointment of Ong Ye Kung as the new Minister for Health, and another committee co-chair alongside incumbents Wong and Gan from 15 May 2021. Singapore also contributed US$500,000 to support the World Health Organization's (WHO) efforts against COVID-19.

In response to the growing number of new cases in early 2020, Singapore enacted the "COVID-19 Control Order", announcing on 3 April 2020 a stringent set of preventive measures collectively called the "circuit breaker lockdown". Initially planned to be applied from 7 April to 4 May, the circuit breaker lockdown was extended to 1 June on 21 April following continued untraced transmission within the community. The Multi-Ministry Taskforce on 19 May announced the three-phased approach to resume activities safely with the gradual re-opening of economic activities in each phase; Phase 1 lasted for 17 days from 2 June and ended on 18 June, with Phase 2 lasting for 6 months and 8 days from 19 June to 27 December. Singapore was in Phase 3 from 28 December 2020 until 7 May 2021; following a spike in community cases from late April to early May 2021, it temporarily reverted to Phase 2 on 8 May, which was raised to "Phase 2 Heightened Alert" as a tightened measure from 16 May to 13 June. Singapore is currently in "Phase 3 Heightened Alert", which is expected to last until the end of 2021. A mass vaccination programme is currently under way following the approval and acquisition of the Pfizer–BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.

As of 1 July 2021, 319 active cases remain out of a total of 62,589 confirmed cases, with 62,234 recoveries and 36 deaths. Singapore currently has a case fatality rate of 0.06%, the second-lowest in the world after Bhutan. It introduced what was considered one of the largest and best-organised epidemic control programs in the world, along with fellow neighbouring countries such as South Korea and Vietnam. Various measures have been taken to mass test the population for the virus, such as isolating any infected people as well as introducing contact tracing apps such as TraceTogether (both app and token) and strictly quarantining those they had close contact with. Such measures has helped avoid further lockdowns after the end of the circuit breaker lockdown measures in June 2020.
