Just got my mouthwash. It comes in a small bottle and I have put it against a remote control for comparison. Is it worth the trouble for getting it? Well... I needed the exercise

Those friends coming back have young kids who already took their vaccinations in US.

Some people do seem to think the holiday is worth the risk, even if the kids are unvaccinated. But I think most would only want to travel with older kids who have been vaccinated. For me, the risk of getting sick on holiday is part of the concern, but I'm more concerned about being stuck in a foreign country for ages if a family member gets sick! Too stressful, and very expensive.[/quote]

I think the more hassle-free way is to join a tour group. If anything goes wrong, at least they’d have all their backup plans + liaising contacts to help you navigate the procedures etc. No need to figure out on your own. And the insurance probably covers the medical expenses.

Yes so far those who we know going on holidays with primary school kids are really those ultra high income families..with the much higher travel costs now, guess family travel now and in the near future will be more for such families, rather than the ‘average’ family as we have been used to.

Er, cannot compare with Listerine cos Listerine is not a medication.

The free one from Temasek is strong, a type of medicine.

Should compare with Betadine gargle, contains PVP-Iodine too. Watsons $6.80 for 120 ml:

Actually, is the free (ie given) Mouth Gargle suitable for all including seniors?

I edit my earlier to post to add this Betadine link.

It is not mouthwash to anyhow use for nice-smelling mouth (that’s what Listerine is mostly for).

It is to kill bacteria & Covid if you have sore throat.

Is the free Mouth Gargle meant to be used only when we have a sore throat ? I am thinking of giving it to my old dad to ask him to gargle for his mouth hygiene.
