Lockdown sinkapore to save the island, what say u?
- Thread starter Tiu Kwang Yew
- Start date
massive outbreak in Johor now
Johor can't wait to reopen causeway to export their infected to Singapore. If Singapore is at the receiving end, can't say no to the causeway reopening, why not announce lockdown in advance to checkmate Johor?

Just look at Italy this week. The medical staff are not only exhausted but simply depressed.
Do Singapore really want to wait for the peak to respond accordingly?
Such complacency

Like u said we already have a few hundred thousand Malaysians. And a million from China,if there's covid it would already be here......unless u think 1.5 million people from Malaysia and China are not going to sneeze or cough on mrt.
Money and GDP is more important than anything.

I'm sure as the world's economy goes to hell, so long as Sinkieland keeps its borders open then the GDP on the snot-sized island will magically buck the trend.
Be careful of trying to grab too many candies from the jar... you might not be able to pull your hand out.
Perhaps some of the bureaucrats are thinking 'Never let a crisis go to waste' etc. Well, good luck with that!
The thing is u guys think the epidemic can be controlled.....I don't think u can control who gets the outbreak or not.....maybe in the early days when there was less than 100 cases and u locked down the entire country completely.....
There's more than 300 cases in sg now,at this point it's like a fire that can't be put out,it will slowly accelerate and grow exponentially.
40 cases a day now....in three weeks time it will be in the thousands.

KNN where are all the oppies voice KNN also why sinkies allow pap to put their life at danger without any protest ? KNN
How dare you disobey your masters? Pinky already said continue life as per normal. Don't contradict your superiors.
I dont think Singapore will ever lockdown.
If it does it is because people themselves dont go out.
Remember SARS? People stayed at home. Ministers were encouraging and pleading with people to go out to eat at restaurants. Help the economy.
So the same will happen. If it becomes out of hand sinkies themselves will stay at home. Everything will still be open. Government will tell everyone to continue as per normal.

I do not hear any voices in Italy asking for everything to re open to save the economy. In fact they are tightening the lock down.
When you reach a certain tipping point the people themselves will get scared.
I kid you not. This is a SARS level crisis. Yes people will argue oh but the mortality rate is much lower. Sure.
However the number of cases you get is way way way more than SARS. In other words even though the mortality rate is much lower the actual number of severely ill and people dying will be far greater than SARS. Also the collateral deaths from having the system overwhelmed will be massive too.
Unless Italy and the entire Europe is an anomaly I fully expect Singapore's plan fo fail and for Singapore to become the next disaster.

Japan, korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan still open. If we close, will lose out to them..

Korea is using the Singapore strategy. Screen large numbers. Catch the cases. Isolate them and contacts.
Which is why my question is how is Singapore doing their screening? Screen all symptomatic cases?
Singapore has so many GP clinics so it is easy to get screening. No need for drive thru (not everyone has car anyway).

for a moment I thought lockdown only possible after erection is held... Teehee...
When the PAP comes up with laws to control your lives everyone complains about the nanny state.
When the PAP does not want to impose a lockdown you now call them scums for not imposing regulations.
Nobody is stopping anyone from locking themselves down. Those who are scared shitless can buy all your toilet paper and then lock your door and not come out until it is safe.
In the meantime those who want to get on with their lives are free to do so.
I think the PAP is the best of the best. They have adopted a most rational approach to what is a mild infection in most.
So lock yourself down if you want to. Nobody is stopping you.

It will happen if the Singapore contact tracing measures are overwhelmed .
During SARS people stayed home and the government begged people to go out and patronize restaurants.
Time will tell if Singapore measures work.
