covid # jump in singapore

Post by phuketrichard »

In Singapore; a record 13,046 local coronavirus infections on Friday, triple the previous day's tally.
Singapore has recorded 85,357 cases of the virus over the last 28 days, but 99.7% of them had no or mild symptoms.

The country has fully vaccinated 89% of the total population against Covid-19, while 59% have received boosters shots.

Authorities have previously warned that daily cases could rise to as many 15,000 due to the highly transmissible Omicron variant.
no end in sight ;-(

So there’s another variant of Omnicon running wild. Not as nasty.

There is an end in sight. Carry on regardless, matron.

I've heard of a few Singaporeans cancelling their trips to Cambodia in the last few days as they tested positive before the flight...

I think the prefix "bloody" might tip it over the edge. :D

The sooner this Omicron comes to town and does its work, the sooner countries like Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam etc will realise that it's not a problem, there is no further need for futile testing and quarantining of visitors and to carry on with these practices is just causing continuing the severe economic harm with no public health benefits.
