Unlikely to resume straightaway. They’ll probably want to monitor situation first. Plus keeping CCA on hold will limit mixing between various levels & classes.
anyone know, when Term 3 school Term start on 2 June, will Cca resume or still off ? Thanks -

Looking at the situation now, seems to be improving. Mentally prepared for schools to reopen as planned.
Anyone knows where to buy good quality kids masks (age 9 and above)? Reusable breathable cloth mask type. Cos if disposable ones can just use adult size & twist the ear loops.
I am trying to find out where to buy the local brand N95 Air+ masks. They do not have an online store. If anyone knows which Watson’s physical store has it, please let me know. I need to figure out which size to buy cos online don’t have measurements! -

I bought my Air+ from Watsons from haze last year. I have been to Watsons last week but did not see Air+ only surgical masks. In case you still wanna buy, I fit M. Pri sch petite boys should fit S.

I can’t find this Air+ brand online, thru all 4 of their supposed stockists (Watson’s, Guardian, Unity and Lazada).
On Lazada, I see plenty of similar masks from China (Eg Xiaomi KN95). Anyone tried them before? I’ve seen adult males wearing them (huge size). But do they have suitable size for 9 year olds? -

Numbers weave a story. Please exercise due diligence before picking and choosing. You cant just look at one parameter without the context.

Please also compare the testing per million - given it's populations size, we have a high number of testing per million. Active testing is being done - mild and asymptomatic ones are being picked up hence a greater number of positives. The migrant workers living in dorms form a very high portion of those tested positive , as they are being tested extensively.
Compare deaths per million - out of the 5026 per million we only have a fatality rate of less than 0.08% , it is around 6% for the world right now .
Compare those in ICU , for the 28K+ positive, 18K+ active cases , but right now we have only 12 in ICU . again 0.06% vs the 2% worldwide.
That should give you a better picture, that probably the testing in other countries is lacking so the positive cases are under represented. It is not like we have exceptional immune system compared to people in other countries.
https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/three-day-daily-tests-per-thousand-since-1-per-mil-confirmed-cases
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ -- gives a lot more columns which makes comparison a little more reasonable.
