Daily Dose : Compassion

Good Morning



We have 2 weeks more before Circuit Breaker ends. For the next 2 weeks, let's show compassion to the frontliners who had been working hard to keep the system running. While it is discomforting for many who had to stay at home, fighting an invisible enemy at the forefront would be one that many would not commit. For those who have stood in your stead, do show your appreciation.

1) 305 cases confirmed. Lowest recorded cases in May
303 Work Permit Holders Dorms
2 SC

However, the number was the result of one testing laboratory having a fewer test.

It may be better if they add the % of people infected/people tested to the numbers. Such absolute numbers do not mean anything on its own as it is subjected to the number of daily tests and may not represent the current situation. On the contrary, it may make people more complacent instead.

3) Another day, another unlink  case for SC

The day before, there were 3 unlink cases. Yesterday, it was reported that there is an additional case. Unlink case was a 58 yr old woman who went to work at Bishan MRT after the onset of symptoms. The presence of unlink cases means that there are still undetected cases circulating despite the 6 weeks CB measures. With the undetected cases, there is a possibility of increase cases once CB is lifted.

We do hope that the ones that broke the laws will be given the same treatment as the others before them.

5) Sengkang GH shows support for staff who was taunted by a neighbour because he is a nurse.

At moments like this, instead of appreciation of frontlines, the neighbours has gone as far as abusing the family of the nurse. Unacceptable behaviour.
