Like that, average 54 heart attacks / strokes a day.. Today, 50 people had an heart attack, wow,,

1 stroke / heart attack case admitted to the hospital every 30 minutes. 

Then there are those mini stroke cases which are not detected. 

There are around 2.2m people in Singapore above 40 years old now. 20k or 1%  of them are likely to have a stroke or heart attack in any given year.

Low intensity activities are allowed where everyone wears a mask all the time.  Don't know what are those activities, but rock climbing gym will be allowed to open.

Quote

Indoor sports facilities such as badminton halls, basketball courts and climbing gyms will continue to remain open because the SportSG directive applies only to “enclosed, confined indoor spaces where participants are likely to be engaging in strenuous activities unmasked”.

Nowadays, new estate has good amenities liao. And for exercise opportunities, which this thread is all about, new estate are better equip and every block within 500m sure have one fitness corner.  The one thing new estate lose out is good hawker food. I need to travel to Hougang area for better hawker food, which isn't far btw.

and expensive too

eg one plate of wanton mee in AMK is $3 

in SK is $4 at least
