Jamesc Hypersonic May 8, 2021 Share May 8, 2021 Indian government are not stupid. They know about fake test certs and willingly let their people go out of the country and spread and spread because they think people going abroad with Covid is NOT their problem. The problem is people going abroad from India and spreading to other countries comes back to India and continue to spread in India. India needs to stop these fake certs. But everyone is on the take so how to stop? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic May 8, 2021 Share May 8, 2021 One thing SG did very well is the pre departure test. We stop people of every nationality with Covid going abroad and spreading to other countries. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, a swab is invasive enough that people need to stay still or get hurt. A home test kit is not a good idea 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count-Bracula Twincharged May 8, 2021 Share May 8, 2021 Shopping at JEM now. This fella walked up to me and stood shoulder to shoulder. I was already slightly more than 1m away from the next guy but he just chugged in between. "HEY! Don't stand so close can or not?" I hissed at him. He walked away. That is why India is breaking global records with daily highs. Now with the rural areas affected, they will surely hit 500k a day. How to fight this virus? 7 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It applies to so many countries like Korea, Japan, USA, All of Europe. wow this is huge... and a bit insane.

These are generally not spreaders though as a precaution, still isolated. Just like yesterday's 3 unlinked, 2 were actually in the "old infections" category. What's scarier are those unlinked that show up at clinic with flu symptoms. Anyway it does look like there is indeed a more infectious variant out there now and all we can do is to contain it through QO and tracing.

MCF reference is joking and I think it is a BIG mistake by the government. I am all for closing borders to India and surroundings, plus higher risk countries in South east Asia. But places like Japan, Korea, USA, Europe needs to be kept open.... the work passes people coming from these places are very few but high value added. Low risk, big benefit.
