Fast and furious...Thailand opening think Msia soon..

BKK also wants to fight for passengers with SIN!
But BKK only has 40+% fully vaccinated. Though their R no is lower due to land size & population density.

Msia is 70+% fully vaccinated I think. But maybe govt wants to clear the current wave of unvaccinated/partially vaccinated seniors first. If they let Msians and Singaporeans come in and out so early, plus those thousands of VTLs, I think the system may collapse.

There's a possibility that some Malaysians may not come back anymore after they return home to reunite with their loved ones! Some might quit their jobs here, and the service/ F&B/ mfg sector may see some attrition.

I am more interested in the question if I am vaccinated, encountered the virus, but did not get infected even asymptomatically, because my body's immune system squashed the virus before I could get infected, will I develop natural immunity?

Or will everyone who is vaccinated and encounters the virus still get infected, albeit asymptomatically?

My colleagues was a confirmed Covid 19 case even he has taken 2 dorse of Pifzer vaccine. He was informed not to take the booster (03rd dorse) until six (06) month later as the Doctor said he will be immune for 180 days from his past infection.

Hong Kong is part of China and therefore has to follow the \"zero case\" policy from the Central Government of China. But same as China, this \"zero case\" policy will affect the growth of economy.[/quote]

So let thousands of your friends, associates, fellow Singaporeans die so that you can make more money. The blooxd of thousands of people will be on whose hands?

If they want people to take reponsibility for themselves, then let the unvaccinated make their own decisions. Advise them, frighten them about the consequences, make it as easy as possible for them to get vaccinated if they can, but let them make their choices. It's like telling the elderly to use pedestrian crossings - if they choose not to, do we man every road to stop them?

Yes.

Funny that they ask pp to take Moderna boosters (6-9 mths interval for those who took 2 M doses) when FDA says it's not necessary.

Didn't you mention natural immunity some weeks ago? Maybe that's their plan as LW had said we, despite being inoculated, are mostly Covid-naive. OYK even blatantly told us it's a rite of passage we have to undergo.

The more you open up, the more cases you'll see. The more cases means the healthcare system will be overwhelmed and won't have the energy to take care of the vulnerable. When the ratio of HCW:patient becomes strained, more vulnerable will have to die. This is sadly the price we must pay to open up.

For HK, some experts have said it's cos their vaccination rate of the elderly is too low and moreover, a sizeable portion of them took Sinovac 6 mths ago, which has supposedly waned faster than Pfizer. If Pfizer can already wane so much and so fast (faster than AZ and Moderna, according to HC), Sinovac will fare even worse. All these ''I have a duty to protect our people'' reasons by Carrie Lam are just sugar-coating BS.

It's cos their population will see a mega wave and their healthcare system will collapse very fast once they forsake the 21-day quarantine. They are now waiting out for the rest of the region to be vaccinated before deciding the next steps. Opening up to Mainland is more than enough to sustain HK's increasingly inward-looking economy.
