Students died during PE lessons!

So shocking for me to read this. Not blaming anyone, but given the prevalence of asthma among today's kids, I think they should introduce regulations that have emergency equipment on standby. Sometimes things can happen very fast and many things can go wrong when there is panic.
Condolences to the family.
(ps: parents with asthmatic kids, do make sure they bring their inhalers and that the teachers are informed. I am not sure how much help this will be in a very severe attack, but every little bit may make a difference or buy an extra minute.) -
This is just so so sad
2nd case in a week. That is unacceptable.
How can the parents take it?
My deepest condolences to the family. -
I am shocked… read the first incident from CNA, but didn’t comment. And today this…
How can we ensure that young kids now are safe from such incidents? DD who is in P5 now, has mild asthmatic symptoms when she was 5… She was given the inhaler and used it whenever she coughed badly and breathed very heavily. In the last 3-4 yr she has used it sparingly, maybe only once or twice a year. I’m worried about whether she will ever need it… -
So sad.

May the boy RIP.

This is very sad… RIP…

Sometimes the kids get pressurised or are too timid to speak up -

Feel so sad for his family. Read in another thread that he is Sec 1. After all the PSLE buzz last year, they are just adjusting to Sec 1 life and it’s very unfortunate that this happened and CNY is round the corner as well. Parents must be devastated. -
