Aka thinking wa, last yr during circuit breaker, we do not need to do swap test in individual HDB blocks and also no need close down whole shopping malls. It's like worst then last cb. I feel that last year situation Vs this year situation is different. Last yr, majority of covid-19 cases are localised in dormitory. Also last year there is limited test kid if I remember, so can't afford to do too many test without yielding any good results, so have to be very targeted approach. Now the covid-19 cases are not localised in dormitory but more to there are many unknowns out there who might have the virus and is spreading. Plus now we have more test kid and more ways to test for covid-19. So can afford to mess test more people, perhaps now is shortage of manpower if need to increase coverage of mess test. So it's of logical idea to do testing for those that is of higher chance to get covid-19 with the data available. Like if there are a few cases in the same block within a set timeframe, that can trigger the alarm to do covid-19 testing at that particular block, shopping malls also. So in a sense government is doing what if could to want to break the chain as much as possible. By looking at it, the approach government take now is even more fast. Like suddenly yesterday late at night where all shopping malls already closed for the day and then suddenly announced Jem and Westgate will close for 2 weeks and do deep cleaning. This is like doing a very speedy decision as no need wait till tomorrow afternoon or what then announced. Immediately do it even late at night and need to close it tomorrow morning so be it. There is still chance that situation can be under control , but that will depends on next few days covid-19 cases. If there are increasing number of unlinked cases that are not picked up though mess testing of people whom had went to selected shopping malls and asked to do swap test and also HDB blocks. Then yeah it went out of control. However if next few days the unlinked cases majority is pickup by mess testing of shopping malls and HDB then okay, that at least is showing that what government is doing is working. So pray hard for next few days covid-19 situation. The mode of transmission for these new variants might also be different from last year. Latest report about the block in Hougang concluded that families have been cross infected, and their units are in the same stack (right below or above each other). This doesn't look like a transmission from the more common areas such as lift buttons etc. Chances of that to hit all within the same stack only is pretty slim. So, I suspect infections from the common sewerage pipes. Not unheard of, this mode of transmission had happened in HK before. The upside is we already increased our testing capacities for both PCR and RTK antigen rapid tests, as you've mentioned. This gives us the capacity to move ahead and carpet bomb to flush out the cases. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadX Moderator May 23, 2021 Share May 23, 2021 So much for safe to carry on visiting places that had been visited by covid positive patients if they say safe, then why now close Jem and westgate. Play tikam tikam again? Game of cards? 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could well be him 😂 When got cornered and out of rebuttals, resorted to more red herrings and counter arguments made personally. I got that just not too long ago, definitely very Calvin Cheng-ish kind of behaviour. Or maybe I am wrong, you need to have this behavioural trait to quality as an IB, so it's a common across the whole lot of them. 1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, suspecting sewerage pipes is one thing. The other is that the design of the pipes we have here in our HDB is quite different from those of the HK case study, so I will be very surprised if later it was found that the virus were spread through the pipes. There is a remote possibility, not say none. But it could also be letter boxes etc. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
