Social distancing (SD) measures aimed at curbing the spread of SARS-CoV-2 remain an important public health intervention. Little is known about the collateral impact of reduced mobility on the risk of other communicable diseases. We used pre-post differences in dengue case counts and exploited heterogeneity in SD treatment effects among different age groups in Singapore to identify the spillover effects of SD measures. SD policy caused an increased in over 37.2% of dengue cases from baseline. Additional measures to pre-emptively mitigate the risk of other communicable diseases must be considered before the implementation/re-implementation of SARS-CoV-2 SD measures.
