Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) Updates

I m just thinking all students will be similarly affected if schools were to close…so likely there will be no one with advantage over the others?

Then maybe MOE can use this opportunity to reset the exam difficulty level? Make it not so difficult anymore so students and parents will have less stress.

It’s a bell curve, so the difficulty does not matter?


Those without help at home will be disadvantaged vs those with help at home.

Those with help at home, school close or no close doesn’t matter much probably… maybe losing the initial stage of understanding, first hand feed from teachers ? dunno if online materials/teachingss could help?

Very sad to see China healthcare people and patients wear layer and layer of clothing.
It's very warm, uncomfortable plus urinate on pampers too

it is still winter there..

Yes, it is still bell curve but if difficulty level is set at 90% of current difficulty level, then students no need to study as hard. Or, reduce the syllabus to 90% then students no need to study as much.

Even at the moment, those without help at home is disadvantaged vs those with help at home.

Mei sewed some 3-ply face masks for the family. Resolves the dilemma of whether to wear a mask every time we step out of the house especially when we can wash and reuse them. Keep the professionally made ones for use in crowded places. But remember, there's no substitute for good hygiene.


Let's continue to keep those infected and those working on the frontline in our thoughts and prayers. Let's be on our best and cooperate with the authorities. We'll get through this.

Some light coming thro after more than a month of tense.


Looking fwd to Tues Parliament’s package to help businesses. Seems that households will be getting sth to defray costs to cope with COVID-19.

Reports also coming thro fr China the speed of COVID-19 infection cases reducing.

We witness the earnest swift work of XJP & LKQ in locking down several cities, mobilizing resources & it’s clamping down on their ppl fr moving ard w/o masks when in errands, etc. I hope this same leadership will hv strong will to ban wild life consumption. In fact, they shld learn to protect WL & not abuse them. I wonder if there are other govt stepping in to support & help bz sustain themselves till this crisis blows over? I’m sure HK will not pull resources to help taxi drivers, hotels, restaurants or other service sectors affected.

Praying for quick recovery for those under treatment & relief in numbers burdening Wuhan’s medical resources. Praying for health safety for all Singaporeans.
