I don't know if you've heard of them. Voivod, Cryptopsy, Strapping Young Lad (with Devin Townsend, also as a solo musician). 😂 Those I don’t know. Len was very popular when I was studying there. They got 1 more hit. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the chronology of events: 28jan-fever and cough. Visited clinic no masks for me and all the patients. 29jan-got worse then visited a different clinic to get 2nd opinion. Again no mask for me. Even the doc also not wearing. 30jan-went back clinic for chest x Ray and blood test. I wear my own mask there. On the same day, Govt announced give 5m masks to everyone. My heart fell there and then when I heard the news.. Over that 3 days I could possibly be infected by all those around me in the clinic coughing and puffing. If the rhetoric is only sick need wear mask, shouldn't the first priority and SOP to make sure all those people in a clinic are wearing a mask? I really pity the docs who risk their live during this time. I was told that during that time each clinic only allocated 1 box a week? Instead the G distributed 5m masks to household, who may never even need to use it cos they are all healthy. No one know how long this will last. Is it prudent and have they really done their sums when all these masks are distributed to everyone? I can only hope so and we will not suffer the consequence of this decision.. 28 Jan - why you never wear own mask? 29 Jan - why you never wear own mask? 30 Jan - how come you suddenly have mask? And how come you worry being infected by others rather than you infecting others? How come everyone in clinic need to wear mask? Funny if I sprained my ankle but clinic say I need to wear mask lol You say no one knows how long it will last, so how much should govt stockpile? Why pity the GP for not stockpiling? Only these 2 months they started seeing people with cough, fever or flu? How come you ownself never stockpile? Did you ask yourself if you were prudent? If we suffer any consequences, is due to our own decisions. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only pray for the summer sun to come soon. Somemore almost all cases here are linked to previous cases and is all within the few claster that was identified.. So for Singapore side.. Quite Heng so far no indication that is spread beyond these few clasters.. This we must really thank spf, moh and etc for their hard work on contact tracing to ensure this virus is contain.

UV promotes Vitamin D synthesis by your skin and Vitamin D is important for immune function. And the direct warming effect of the sun also helps, though perhaps not by inactivating viruses. It helps to dry up secretions more quickly and thereby reduce the spread and persistence of Infectious droplets. And a lot of people sneeze less when their nasal mucosa is nice and warm (people tend to get rhinitis and the sneezes in cold weather) so that also plays a role in reducing transmission. Actually is there a uv lamp or uv oven we can buy to sanitizer keyboards mouse, ipad, etc? looking around for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about this scenario wondering if it’d help... set up tentage of 8-10 beds each under shade near secluded beach (west coast or Pasir ris) for less critical cases. Patients get fresh air flow from land or sea breeze...away from crowd, ease hospital load. patients can also access direct sunlight for 10-15mins easily. logistics and cordon of restricting areas can be a daunting task though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember a fifth of patients need critical care.

Anyway becareful on road as there's many Taxi and PHV driving aimlessly on road.. kenna so many these days as they just cut from no way to street hail.. best part yesterday a PHV pick a passenger on the second lane at a traffic junction when lights is red..... other case is they drive so slow on road hoping someone will appear no where to take their ride.. I understand biz is poor BUT safety still come first.. At least govt/co did help with rental and such.. some biz oredi face 50% pay cut at the mgmt level.. all sectors are hit.. like it or not.. the economy impact is now surfacing.. more to come.. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
