      Cases will likely surge somewhat when we open up, but impt thing is that so far our healthcare system has shown strength.. Ppl who need treatment for other illnesses aren’t turned away etc, still have capacity.. Saw this

        I don’t understand why the linked closed contacts of the existing cases are considered “community cases”. It’s obvious they caught it from that family member or housemate at home, not from going out to shop/commute & it spread to them from the community “out there”.

        So who qualifies as a “non-community” case? Medical workers or what?[/quote]
        come July, students (non graduating cohort) can go school everyday, or still alternate week hbl ?

          At the end of T3W1, govt told us got those 5 separate secondary school cases.


          At the end of T3W2, no new cases linked to schools. This is good news.

          Maybe they will wait till end of T3W3 to see if confirm no more new cases in schools, to give green light.

              Last night I read that one Unlinked case, a sec 4, 15yo St Anthony’s Canossian Sec girl showed symptoms on the 3rd June and confirmed the virus on 12th June.


              Last night I was wondering why show symptoms on 3rd June but report came out only 12th June. Then did she attend school during that period?

              Serological test showEd she caught the virus before school reopened.

              Then just now ST reported that the girl’s teacher found her to be unwell during the temperature taking session on 10th June. So she was sick for more than a week before being identified?

              Although 47 classmates had been tested negative, I think still need to be watchful as symptoms may only show up a few days (7-14 days) later?

                How about all the subject Teachers, teaching this Sec 4 girl, besides her classmates ?


                And, how about all her subject Teachers, teaching rest of the other level classes too?

                As we know, subject Tr doesn’t teach one and only one class only. They also teach the same subject, for other classes too ?

                Is St Anthony Cannosian Sec school going to shut down school, next week ?

                    but if during PE, the students in her Sec 4 class removed face mask to chit-chat, then ...

                    in my opinion, Sec 4 being a crucial O-level National exam year, these students should not have PE

                    because

                    if they had removed face mask to chit chat during PE, the possibility that virus would have spread, possible that more students besides her could have contacted covid-19, and how they going to take National O-level exam, if infected and stay inside hospital ?

                    The repurcussion (consequences), is drastic, because
                    it is an O-level exam year

                    all (PSLE, O-level, A-level) students, should not have PE, if they were to remove face-mask, chit chat freely

                    some more, now already almost end of June
                    National exam coming so soon, counting down to 3 months


                    if not graduating this year, can have PE

                      Actually hor, that day at a mall, saw a group of Sec students standing very close to one another. Definitely no safe distancing 🤷 🤷
