Daily Dose June 29 : Attractions Reopen
Attractions will reopen in Singapore
It was widely thought that Singapore attractions such as Singapore Zoo and USS
would only open in Phase 3 due to the large number of people that will visit.
It was a surprise when it was announced that 13 attractions will reopen the
doors on 1 July. With a cap of 25% capacity, it might actually make sense.
COVID19
1) 213 cases confirmed
202 Dorms
11 Community ( 6 Singaporeans, 2 Work Pass, 3 Work Permit)
The community cases are back to double-digits with 6 new cases. Unlinked cases
in the community had also risen to 8 cases. The dorms situation remains the
similar as tests still continue for the rest of the 200K FW in dorms. Expect
the numbers to remain high until all are tested.
2) 2 Singapore Teenagers on the list of confirmed cases
Both are unlinked
One is a 15-year-old girl from East Spring. She has not been in school since
June 25. The other is a 13-year-old girl with symptoms on June 10 but was only
confirmed on Jun 27 (2 weeks later)
The second case would be a source of concern for parents. If she had been in
school during that period, it would mean the students around here could have
been exposed. It also questioned if schools have implemented checks diligently
as they should ( ie temperature monitoring, isolating students who are unwell)
3) 13 Attractions to Open on 1 July

5 The organiser of group badminton session calls for guidelines to be
clearer
One positive COVID19 case had played badminton with a group of 29 people.
Group was organised by one person and intermingling had taken place during the
session.
The organiser insisted that he did not breach safe distancing act because he
interpreted it that as long as he is under the limit for the maximum number of
people allowed in the sports hall, he is adhering to the rules. At the same
time, rules such as up to 4players a court and no co-mingling are conveniently
ignored.
6 2 Amoy Stree bars ordered to cease operation
One of them , Moonstone Bar, claimed it was shut down as patrons were seen
drinking alcohol at the establishment after 1030pm

7 Fabrications about PAP shut down
The pro-PAP Facebook page with 250K subscribers had been shut down for
violating Facebook Policies. No actual details were provided on the violation.
Facebook removes accounts that clearly violate its policies, including people
who misrepresent themselves, use fake accounts, or engage in behaviour
designed to enable other violations of its community standards.
FAP had been known to have a one-sided opinion on opposition. Some of the
posts are questionable. The site has never been formally endorsed by PAP
8 Another PAP candidate was flagged out for behaviour, this time the
response was swift and positive
It would be great if we concentrate on issues on hand instead of
sensationalizing every trivial matter.
