Singapore: Ushering In The New Year 2021

 SSO said... Singapore: Ushering In The New Year 2021

To usher in the new year 2021, Singapore has gladly imported 27 new cases of COVID-19 infected people and MOM has reported at least a total of 30 confirmed cases in its first instalment of creative reporting of COVID-19 infections of the day. The second installment of the creative reporting is expected to be done by MOM in a press release tonight.

As such, Singapore has steadily reached a record total of 58,629 confirmed Covid19 infected cases, for the whole year of 2020, and happily counting for more cases to be added in the year 2021. Such enthusiasm is unparalleled in Asia!

There are also three cases detected in the community, an indication that no report of community infections in the past few weeks does not necessarily mean that there are no infected people walking around freely in the community. It only means that the detection system is weak or non-existent.

One of the three newly detected persons in the community is a family member of the PSA Marine harbour pilot whose infection was confirmed yesterday, 31 December.

Another two cases are the close contacts of the marine surveyor at Lloyd’s Register Singapore and a 14-year-old Raffles Girls’ School student, probably just came back from India.

The 27 imported cases have only been carelessly put on Stay-Home Notice but not quarantined. Amongst them, 5 are Singaporeans (possibly new citizens from India?), 8 are PRs (possibly from CECA Indians?) and 14 are foreign domestic workers (possibly from Indonesia, Philippines and Myanmar?).

MOM does not want to report which nationalities and countries the imported COVID-19 infected persons are from. We no choice but have to keep guessing and speculating and assume that they are most probably from countries that have highest numbers of COVID-19 cases, such as USA, Brazil and India.

As for the imported infected domestic workers, we have to assume that they are from our main sources of supply, i.e. Indonesia, Philippines and Myanmar. Can't go far wrong, is it not?

With creative reporting being the fashion of the day, our receiving-end brains must rise up to the occasion to be more creative in our thinking and deductions, so as to get a more realistic picture at the end of the day.

Wishing all a more thinking new year, 2021!

  1. Got vaccines will travel. Don't need scare already lah.
    Got millionaires running the country, why scared?
    Import more foreigners with virus infections, AIDs carriers, or other diseases sufferers have become a common norm already lah.

    Because got stupidity cannot cure type of people running the country, now also got imported TB also cannot cure one. Maybe later also got Covid-21 cannot cure one.

    This little red dot looks like fun, lots of fun people, and funny people running around. Plenty opportunities to get infected and plenty of you die your own business people around also.

    Nation building? My foot. National Service to protect country, trying to bluff who? Soft knees 18 year-old teenagers, wearing thick thick spectacles, can fight? The Indonesian KKO commandos shout at them, they surely balls shrink, shiver and cry for mama one.

    Where got hope, Sinkies?

  2. Today, MOH reported at midday Singapore imported another 33 new cases from other countries. Going higher and higher by the day.

    This importing business must be very lucrative. Wonder how much $millions is being made everyday. Must be good for the GDP growth?

    Maybe the Health Care system is too lax. Not enough business? Need more business from other countries?

  4. I went to KK Hospital today. Usually it is very crowded before. Now it is totally deserted. Only one to three customers. People are avoiding going to hospitals. So business not good. They need more sick people. So import more sick people from overseas. Otherwise how to pay the doctors and nurses?
