Poor boy, some people may be laughing at him for going out to exercise (weightlifting). MOH’s statement was less than sympathetic and placed over emphasis on the weightlifting exercise seemingly to suggest that the strenuous exercise was the cause of the cardiac arrest.
Our 14 members expert-committee only said “avoid strenuous activity after 2nd dose”. Only today suddenly revised their advice to “no exercise for one week after each dose”. Then likely no advice was given to all the teens on vaccination day that they should not exercise for one week after 1st dose! -
So if NS, will they get 1 week off after vaccination? DS got his vaccination a few months ago. No off day. I wonder whether going forward they will not do anything strenuous after the jab.

I noticed that many import cases were tested positive when they just arrived Singapore.
With the test taken within 48 hours before departure, why are there still so many such cases when they just arrived in Singapore? 🧐🧐 -
Cabin crews high risk job…

Incubation is usually 5 days or so. That's why they serve SHN on arrival.

Nothing much can be said cos vaccination is not mandatory and it’s a personal choice, just that I wonder if all the parents have been equally informed about the risks such as myocarditis (heart inflammation). In hindsight the vaccination effort for children seems so rushed, that’s why I would rather wait and see. Now the boy is like a guinea pig, his unfortunate case helps to establish the advisory of no strenuous exercise for a week after 1st dose.
It’s like a Russian Roulette, quite confirmed some young males out there will suffer from myocarditis after the Pfizer vaccination, just whose son will be the one.
Now question is, for those who already had their 1st dose, should they carry on with their 2nd dose? I would think yes, else it’s as good as not being vaccinated. And for those who are still sitting on the fence like me, can wait for a clearer picture before going for the mRNA vaccine or simply wait for Novavax. -
Being vaccinated with current covid vaccine (esp Pfizer) does not prevent other mutants or variants of covid, but at least it curbs the general covid and hopefully, researchers build on their prior learning of old vaccines to curb the Delta or Delta Plus variants or every new ones that come. Just as we had lived with common flu & get ourselves vaccinated before our travels during flu seasons, it helps the doctors to cut down on tracing how to treat our flu for other variants we’ve not been vaccinated for.
Keep on our toes folks!

MOH released advisory yesterday that one should avoid amongst other things, cycling for one week post-vaaccination. The thought of not being able to cycle for a week…now I don’t feel like going for the 2nd jab hahahahahah!
Kidding. My kids and I are still going for our 2nd shots, I think, heh. -

Am I missing something here? We can meet in groups of 5 to sociaise in the workplace from 12 July, but we can't actually work in the workplace? Surely the Covid infection risk of working with masks on will be lower than socialising (which in Singapore almost inevitably include food and drink)?
