[pieface]

In before less deadly than Sars, healthy no need wear mask and endemic already.

 

[desmond_yee1]

why those coming via VTL still no mandatory SHN?

 

[potatohead]

Mtf is always two steps behind.

it is actually funny that such a bunch of highly educated and highly informed pple can always and without fail make decisions that go against simple common sense

It's because their interests are not aligned w the country's interests

 

[tankgunner]

[Amaterasu]

Why do we need them say things that people already now ?

Bunch of hindsight monkeys

 

[fs_lim]

it's already community spreading la, you stupid incompetent fools MOH/MTF!


Read HWZ Forum Rules!

What good is there to have a ministry that only tells you that community spread is just a matter of time?
Might as well shut this ministry down and have people handle their own health since everyone's death is just a matter of time.

https://www.straitstimes.com/singap...QI3h0Op6Te0O9Lm9x2a8LdwTYsvV8DWREr4H9E4fM8YFc More Omicron cases have been picked up in Singapore as the Covid-19 variant spreads across many countries and regions, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Wednesday (Dec 22) in announcing a freeze on vaccinated-travel lane (VTL) ticket sales.

It noted that, thus far, an enhanced testing regime for travellers has helped the authorities to detect 65 confirmed Omicron cases.

"With aggressive contact tracing and ring-fencing measures, we have, for now, been able to limit onward community transmission. But it is a matter of time before the Omicron variant spreads in our community," MOH added.

At a press conference on 14 DEC 2021 by the national Covid-19 task force, Associate Professor Kenneth Mak, director of medical services at MOH said

There is no evidence that they were infected by people in the community. Their exposure to Omicron is likely to have been from workplace exposure to infected travellers in the transit areas.



Assoc Prof Mak added
“We do not have any evidence so far to suggest that Omicron variant is spreading in the community. But we must be prepared for the possibility of more local Omicron cases and clusters arising in future,”

Kenneth Mak's statement is very assuring as well as redundant....

But.. But.. Allow WFO wor... Lmao!!! Simply cannot trust MOH lah

 

[BBClone]

Omikung virus only la

Like flu, high transmission but low virulence

But good for pushing booster and child vaxx agenda by gahment, big pharmas and 154th media

 

[sgggid]

never fail to amuse me why they need to issue these statement vs what they are doing .....

 

[Bumblebee Man]

Seriously 99.9% of the bbfa here already foresee this is happening. Yet our highly educated ministers went ahead with vtl open borders. Now that its happening they announce temp suspending vtl. Is their IQ zero?

 

[laopokcar_g]

fugging hell, déjà vu of the delta spread again. What lessons did they learn ?

Learn to look in rear view mirror and say no benefit of hindsight

Will Singapore regain its number 1 spot in terms of infections per capita?

 

[AndroidComa]

Bukit Timah Shopping center cluster reported isn't it ?

How to not spread ?

how is that NOT community?
or the gym so atas that they issue their own passport and have their own VTL?
