Blueray Hypersonic June 2, 2020 Share June 2, 2020 Face shields cannot be worn in place of masks Quote "While face shields may provide some protection, the design of face shields typically leaves a gap between the face and the shield, which means that the wearer could still be depositing droplets. This is unlike masks." An infected person wearing a face shield would be more likely to spread Covid-19 to someone else, compared with a person wearing a face mask. Only specific groups will be allowed to wear face shields in place of face masks. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/face-shields-cannot-be-worn-in-place-of-masks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator July 6, 2020 Author Share July 6, 2020 Scientists say coronavirus is airborne, ask WHO to revise recommendations NEW YORK: Hundreds of scientists say there is evidence that novel coronavirus in smaller particles in the air can infect people and are calling for the World Health Organization (WHO) to revise recommendations, the New York Times reported on Saturday (Jul 4). The WHO has said the coronavirus disease spreads primarily from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth, which are expelled when a person with COVID-19 coughs, sneezes or speaks. In an open letter to the agency, which the researchers plan to publish in a scientific journal next week, 239 scientists in 32 countries outlined the evidence showing smaller particles can infect people, the New York Times said. The WHO did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Reuters. Whether carried by large droplets that zoom through the air after a sneeze, or by much smaller exhaled droplets that may glide the length of a room, the coronavirus is borne through air and can infect people when inhaled, the scientists said, according to the New York Times. However, the health agency said the evidence for the virus being airborne was not convincing, according to the New York Times. "Especially in the last couple of months, we have been stating several times that we consider airborne transmission as possible but certainly not supported by solid or even clear evidence," Dr Benedetta Allegranzi, the WHO's technical lead of infection prevention and control, was quoted as saying by the New York Times. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueray Hypersonic July 7, 2020 Share July 7, 2020 NCID studying to see if coronavirus naturally airborne Quote The National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) is carrying out a study to determine if the coronavirus is naturally airborne, and infectious in such a form. But even if it is, the current measures in place here would be sufficient to reduce transmission rates, NCID senior consultant Kalisvar Marimuthu said yesterday. He was responding to queries on an open letter signed by 239 scientists around the world, calling on the World Health Organisation (WHO) to acknowledge the risk of the virus that causes Covid-19 being airborne. The letter is expected to be published in a scientific journal this week. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/ncid-studying-to-see-if-virus-naturally-airborne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueray Hypersonic September 24, 2020 Share September 24, 2020 Children under 6 no longer required by law to wear mask Quote Children under the age of six will no longer be legally required to wear a face mask, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said yesterday. It will amend the Covid-19 (Temporary Measures) (Control Order) Regulations 2020 next Monday to update the legal minimum age for children to wear masks to six years old and above, up from the current two years old and above. However, the ministry's director of medical services Kenneth Mak said: "To protect young children from Covid-19, we continue to encourage young children to wear a mask or a face shield, especially if they are in a group setting, for example, in pre-school or when they are in social activities interacting with other kids." https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/children-under-6-no-longer-required-by-law-to-wear-masks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueray Hypersonic October 21, 2020 Share October 21, 2020 TraceTogether check-ins to be compulsory at public venues in S'pore by end-December Quote SINGAPORE - By the end of December, checking in with the TraceTogether app or token will be mandatory at all popular venues, including restaurants, workplaces, schools and shopping malls, as Singapore prepares to enter phase three of its reopening. It means members of the public will no longer be able to gain entry to these places by scanning SafeEntry QR codes with their phone cameras, or through the SingPass mobile app or barcodes on their NRIC. SafeEntry is the nation's digital check-in system mandated at all these places. They must instead use either the TraceTogether app or token. Quote There are already 38 community centres today distributing tokens. By end November, TraceTogether tokens will be made available at all 108 community centres islandwide. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/checking-in-with-tracetogether-to-be-compulsory-at-public-venues-by-december Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
