Last night we saw the same group of guys, came together, hiding in a remote corner on the open space to drink beer and make merry. At least 10 of them. This time round, we use OneService app to inform the authorities. Police came 2hrs later (social distancing matters) and the whole group ran for their lives when they saw the police.
Let’s do our part for the CB. If the CB gets extended for another month, I think it is not good for many people’s mental health including mine, :frustrated: -
If the CB extend for another one more month into May, after May is June one month break, school holiday. By then, after June, school can open in July Term 3

Looking at the way so many irresponsible people are disregarding the CB rules, I’m mentally prepared that schools will not reopen at all for the rest of Term 2. At least June hols we don’t need to login for HBL hopefully. Give us some proper holidays.

DH go down da bao still sees the old uncles not wearing masks despite new rules must wear masks outdoors, sitting around the coffee shop & void decks, talking to each other but sit far far apart, shout to each other their daily gossip. -
SINGAPORE — The Learning Vision@Work pre-school centre at National University Hospital Medical Centre will be closed for a week from Thursday (16 April), after one of its teaching staff tested positive for COVID-19.
In a media release on Wednesday, the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) said that the staff member was last in the centre at Lower Kent Ridge Road on 9 April. The closure of the premises thus covers the 14-day incubation period of the coronavirus.
All affected staff and children at the centre will be placed on a Leave of Absence during the closure period. Contact tracing is ongoing.
The centre said that it will also conduct a thorough cleaning and disinfection of the pre-school premises, and is closely monitoring its staff and parents on the health of their children.
Barring any new developments, the Centre will resume limited service provision on 24 April, to serve parents who are working in essential services and are unable to extend their alternative care arrangements beyond the closure period.

Actually, if you read the statistics, the bulk of the cases are from the FW dorms and work permit holders. The minority are local cases. So far that has been the case the past week, with 20-30+ local cases. So I don’t think it is spreading uncontrollably yet. Its true the dorm situation needs to be fixed and govt should have seen it coming from the initial dorm clusters. But I think govt is doing all they can to control it. They are also doing extensive testing, which explains for the surge in cases. But to look at it in a positive way, I rather we do more testing and sieve out all the infected workers and get them treated, to break the chain effect. I believe by next week the numbers should drop since they are doing the isolation now. Let’s all be patient. For now, its really a concerted effort from all of us to stay home and think positively!
