She know she herself is sick, right ?
How did the staff working at Bishan mrt catch the virus? She has a family member who is a confirmed case? How did this family member catch it?
still want to go to work, spread virus to colleagues, harm others.
People can suffer & die from covid19, just because of selfish people like her -

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.[/quote][quote=\"zac's mum\" post_id=1976563 time=1589785243 user_id=53606]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 can’t find this Air+ brand online, thru all 4 of their supposed stockists (Watson’s, Guardian, Unity and Lazada). [/quote]You probably won't find Air+ masks in the market for the time being, if you hadn't bought any before Feb. I bought 3 boxes from the last haze too.
The 2 production lines that were shifted back from Taiwan in Feb are apparently only producing hospital grade smaller size masks for frontline HCWs.

In another ST Photo, you can see ST Engg manufacturing surgical masks too. I'm not sure if they'd refitted any of the 2 Air+ lines brought back from Taiwan or they'd bought new surgical mask equipment and set up more lines to meet the demand of our healthcare sector.

I think many of you have not gone out enough for hours to feel the pain of wearing a mask for prolonged periods. There've been reports in North Asia that their working adults and kids have developed ear rashes. Do google to check out some online hacks to circumvent that. Otherwise, get the Indonesian masks that are designed for tudung wearers (2 elastic bands behind your head like how you secure your goggles). The back of your ears can be rather painful if you don it for 3 hrs+Recess+3 hrs in school or for 4 hrs+lunch+4 hrs in office.
Before school reopens, do teach your young BESPECTACLED kids (esp those in lower primary and fidgety boys) how to pinch the malleable wire tightly over the nose bridge, and press firmly along the contours of their cheekbones before putting on their glasses over that piece of wire, so that their lenses won't fog up. The fog that comes with every breath you take can be annoying I assure you if you're sloppy in securing that mask properly after each meal or each PE lesson.

There are indeed many naysayers. I don’t know why some just cannot be objective & hold so much fears. Granted some level of caution & precaution is nec in this pandemic, but more & beyond somehow is so smothering. I s’times stay away fr participation. Life goes on.m

Btw, like slmkhoo’s balanced perception. Her heart is not gripped coz her heart is focus in Human spirit of hope & constructive love.
Agree with her. I wld keep calm, keep safe distancing, wear masks, keep higher hygiene practices, wash/wash/wash Our hands frequently. Teach our kids to develop these good habits as part of their system. -

DS finds the free reusable mask too thick and suffocating. I will stock up on the disposable kind. Probably need to prepare 3 per day: change after eating recess & change after PE or when sweaty.MrsKiasu\" post_id=\"1976735\" time=\"1589872918\" user_id=\"43981:

We are in a very good mood now after hearing the MOE press release news. Especially my extrovert boy is ultra happy at the thought of finally going back to school to see all his friends in person.[/quote]

With or without virus, these are all basic, good habits to maintain (except safe distancing... no need 1m to 2m so far lah). -

No news yet, still pending contact tracing bah...
How did the staff working at Bishan mrt catch the virus? She has a family member who is a confirmed case? How did this family member catch it?
Guess either she mingled with a virus carrier colleague (e.g. cleaners in the same station) or she came into contact with family members who are frontline workers.
I am wondering for such cases, if they caught the virus because they broke CB rules, say went to meet someone secretly (e.g. friend or relatives who work in dorms operations) would they dare to admit? -

Not sure if our kids need to remove the masks during PE lessons[/quote]
Can use face shield as alternative to mask, I suppose if child has asthma or eczema skin allergy to prolonged direct face covering.

If can wear face shield to school instead of face mask, i would think face shield is more comfy and airy! :rahrah:
And also cheaper too in the long run.
Which brand is good? I saw ntuc cashier wearing one this morning, way too big and the plastic is too flimsy. -
I also like the face shield better. They are sold online, but do get the anti-fog ones with a sponge headgrip. I wonder where those essential workers’ kids get theirs from? Their photos were on MOE’s FB.
