3 BIGGEST Weaknesses of the Human Body

 

[crumpler ish jin expensiv]

Those of you who have already done your stocking-up, congratulations to you.

Now is the time to dig-in and minimise going out unnecessarily; it is definitely not the time to pop the champagne and celebrate 'endemic living with COVID-19', for that would be a foolhardy thing to do, especially when so many countries are battling new surges and even a fourth wave.

Better to batten down and let this wave wash over us first. As the Chinese saying goes, "稳扎稳打".

Jialat man.
Its always the hospitalisation and ICU numbers. If those can be controlled, no issues with the rest. Unfortunately, those numbers are linked to the total numbers of people who contract covid.
In other words, they need to bring that number down to reduce the load and strain on the medical facilities and manpower.
Urging is clearly not working. People are tired, stressed out by the ever changing messages.
If don't go to malls, go where? Most things are located in malls too.
I've not been eating out in hawkers/coffeeshop/restaurants since the ban on unvacc has been announced. The Mrs just took her 2nd sinovacc shot, so we have been eating in the car.
I suppose this helps to save money, There's a limit to how much u can pack and eat in the car. But its also tiring la. Need to 'hide' in the car like we are doing something wrong.

I don't see this numbers going down anytime soon. Winter is coming, its the flu season again. Coupled with covid, I think it would be a deadlier 4th quarter 2021 for all of us.
As usual, do what you can to keep yourself and your family safe.
For the rest, we can only watch and pray.
As our muslim friends say, Inshallah. God williing.

On a personal level, try not to kena, even when vaccinated. Still can get loss of taste/smell. It's still a rather tricky/depressive thing to be in, esp if you are a foodie, and also coz there is some uncertainty as to when you can get it back.

Note, past 10 days got re-classification of the caes, ART +ve asymptomatic and very mildly symptomatics no count. eg like my colleague's wife and a few EDMWers here. No see lor kun no PCR swab one.
And these cases got chance are out and about in the community.

Coz of this, avg daily swabs done is just ~ 32k now for the past 7 days. 3k+ cases 7 days moving avg, you go figure out the case positivity rate and undetected cases in the community.

Amen to that.

In these tough times, everyone must imbibe the spirit of James Bond!

Have a great evening!
