      Btw, is it 10 unlinked new cases that they report daily … Or is the total number of unlinked cases now decreased to 10, i.e. the previous unlinked cases have now been linked?


      Or basically… How many acclaimed unlinked cases do we have now in Singapore?

        I am worried about the increasing numbers of frontline support staff that have caught the virus. Reading between the lines of the news reports, it seems that many of the daily 5-15 local cases are such staff. And that the training/proper use of the PPE had some lapses, which led to the staff catching the virus.


        How about the other local cases?? Who are they and where did they catch it from??

        I don’t see the numbers of local community cases dropping to steady single digit yet. Been waiting very long…

          The govt must be very busy that nothing's been done at the F&Bs during the 'lull period'.


          Why isn't anyone (MEWR or private restaurant owners) erecting any plastic partitions on dining tables yet?

          After 1 Jun, we hope to be able to sit down to eat or drink. F&Bs, grooming services and spa services go hand in hand with tuition centres. If tuition centres are reopened after 1 Jun, parents of younger kids (who need to be sent to and fetched from the door) would need a chair to sit down for 2 - 3 hrs. If there are no chairs to sit in cafes, please ensure my foot massage parlour is 同步解封!

            Because the people who can make, supply and install the partitions are all not allowed to work yet? Not classified under essential services. Unless they lift this ban.

              When PM mentioned 'larger, hidden reservoir\", he wasn't referring to FOREIGN WORKERS. Please reread his speech; he was talking about the community you and I are moving around in:

              \"Community
              In the wider community, the circuit breaker is starting to have an effect. The number of community cases has fallen in recent days.
              This is the result of all of us coming together, making sacrifices and adhering to the circuit breaker rules. We cannot afford to be complacent. We must press on. To bring down daily infections more sharply, to a single digit, or even zero. And to reduce the number of unlinked cases: those cases where we do not know how they got infected, or from whom.
              Because unfortunately that number of unlinked cases has not come down. And this suggests there is a larger, hidden reservoir of COVID-19 cases in the community, that is the source of these unlinked cases, which we have not detected. \"

              Of course PM wasn't saying this based on his \"Sixth Sense\", without any scientific/medical evidence. He has access to some random serological test results to make that kind of statement.
              I think more like poor advice from the task force? Else why less than 2 weeks after tightening CB measures, task force deems it safe enough to ease rules again? Are you saying the large hidden reservoir disappears after 2 weeks?

              For serological tests, results are not immediate.
              The team needs to collect past statistics and then do an analysis. I recall reading the NCID study on ST, so far, they have only analyzed the data up till end March. And up till Mar, NCID’s assessment is that there wasn’t any large hidden reservoir. If one wants to know about the effect from CB, then must wait until end of May/June.

                DH said for TCM, it is v important as many, many old folks (like him) need acupuncture to 解痛!

                I was just telling DH that many older folks rely on acupuncture for pain relief. Chronic pain is one area that conventional western medicine has little to offer. But if acupuncture is inaccessible, can consider diy accupressure at home instead. DH was quite impressed that I could \"cure\" his leg cramp in 10min during the circuit breaker, using the various points and strokes that I picked up over the years from my mum, sinsehs, chiros and masseurs. 😂

                :udawoman:
                I showed DH your post. Ask him whether he would like to try some of these (e.g. DIY acupuncture), he said no need 😓 , today his aches and pain have totally disappeared!

                      Why Everyday we continue to see 700+ new cases? When will this number drop to say 500+ or even lower?
