From that shop, bottles of hand sanitizers are pretty expensive too.

Am I the only one not wearing a mask?

Saw this at CK on 28 Feb. price was alr ridiculously high. Some selling smaller bottles of 50ml at $10. Real rip off. Was thinking I’m glad I don’t feel paranoid enuf to buy dozens of bottles.

Star,
I don’t wear masks when out. Only bring at least 2 in my bag, for emergency or when I feel uncomfortable someone sneezing/coughing not within my control. Thankfully, i don’t often meet such socially objectionable behaviour these days.

me too, i bring one or two in my bag, din really wear , people cough, i detour away.
i use hand sanitizer more often and use tissue papers, tear small pieces of papers to pull door handles, press lift buttons etc in office, i wash hands dunno how many times in my 8+ hrs at work

I do wash hands more often than before and try to maintain a distance from others. But in mrt, this is impossible.

Once home, I take shower and change all clothes. I try to stay healthy though this fear of covid is stressing me out.

Am getting morning diarrhoea daily last wk. After seeing a doc and taking the medicine, I suffer from constipation now.

I’ve skin peeling as usual esp now hv increased washing. I’ve no choice depend on helper since I’ve skin peeling problem doing any type of washing. Now, I’m subjected to skin peeling just for washing. Feel how our frontline medical personnel are suffering in their jobs - masks marks, sweating inside layers of protective masks & covers. I’m sure those who hv to put on double/triple head protection for hours might suffer hair loss as a result, not to mention missing families as some stick to strict protocol to distance themselves after Dr Chao’s example during the SARS. I see their life saving, sacrificial hearts and pray they’ll see how sacred their efforts are for these sacrifices. :salute:

Yes, my skin is drier due to the usage of hand sanitizer

Tks. I know nobody knows how this crisis will continue and there is really nothing much I can do. Somehow the uncertainty and fear of this invisible enemy just stressed me out.

Star,
Try morning after b’fast close eyes for 15 min doing slow deep breathing. Owise we can go sip coffee/tea at a corner 2-seater somewhere west? :snuggles: Don’t stress by yourself. I help you relieve.

How much is RH selling per piece? Made in where?

I went in check no stock now..selling 4 at 1.80.

Zac's mom, so if non patient of Raffles can only buy 1 pack..can bring dd there so can get another pack?

Sorry, I dunno if under 21 year old can qualify as another person.

My family members just clicked buy online thru the app. They will notify you thru email once ready for collection. And I collected for all of them (show the email confirmation order number) since near my office. So...I’m meaning you ask all the adults in the house to order. Maybe student email also can order, I dunno.

Just gotta wait cos this is for non-urgent cases. If really urgent cos sick and need to go doctor, better just use their video doctor consult service, or call up a PHPC clinic and see whether they can send a mask/ambulance over.[/quote]Below 21 can buy.

Limit to 2 packs of 4 masks per transaction.

The quality is better than some of the ones I get at nearly the same price or more.

and the not so good[quote]Singapore has confirmed 32 new Covid-19 cases, including 24 that are imported, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Thursday (March 19).

This is a drop from a high of 47 new cases that were recorded on Wednesday, highest number since the start of the outbreak.

All of the imported cases were returning residents and long-term pass holders. They had travelled to Europe - currently the epicentre of the virus - as well as to other countries such as North America and parts of Asia.

Of the remaining eight cases announced on Thursday, two are linked to previous ones, while six are unlinked.

This brings the total number of infected patients here to 345.

Seven more cases have been discharged from hospital, bringing the total number of patients who have fully recovered to 124.

Of the 221 patients still in hospital, 15 are in critical condition in the intensive care unit.[/quote]
