I wonder if those community cases are recovered patients who were previously discharged from hospital?

If so, you won't know how many potential infectors are out there in the wild.

The talk of speeding up Phase 2 was a silly attempt at boosting morale, not unlike the Gov dot sg initiative to scream and sing at the balconies.

It's the election year after all. A white lie is preferred to the truth.

 

[Leongsam]

How many are actually sick?

 

[hofmann]

Good that community spreading is going up.

It's all meaningless numbers now because they can change the definition of "community cases" any time they want, as they have already done so.

No trust in their figures anymore. The number is whatever they want it to be

There is no ISO standard for reporting of covid figures. So just whack anything you like.

How many are actually sick?

KNN the 7 was sicked then they were tested to be positive KNN my uncle don't want and cannot afford to be inside the list KNN slowly it will multiply to 70 and multiply again and again KNN

Curious to know what made you say this?

Totally agree and if they continue to list the places these cases spend more than 30 mins at probably half sg will go through a mini cb again

KNN my uncle urge pap to consider bring back to full cb or stay put at phase 1 until vaccine is available or when virus becomes type D KNN else pap will leegret when they realise all previous efforts are wasted and the down stream price to pay back will be many many times greater than staying put at cb KNN becas my uncle think it will not do any good to the economy either if a force through phase 2 and 3 is to proceed KNN

 

[Porfirio Rubirosa]

How many are actually sick?

Perhaps the right question should be how many of these 7 have been hospitalised? And if so, how many in ICU?

Quite frankly, it doesn't matter what is done domestically when this is happening:

SINGAPORE, 3 June 2020: A Fast lane to open travel between Singapore and China should activate this month according to a summary briefing from the 2nd China-Singapore Joint Meeting on Covid-19, held via a video-conference on Monday.

Wrapping up the conclusions of the virtual joint meeting, Singapore’ Ministry of Foreign Affairs said: “Both sides agreed on the launch of a Fast Lane arrangement in early June to facilitate essential travel for business and official purposes between the two countries.”

Initially, the arrangement would apply to travel between six Chinese provinces or municipalities directly under the central government (Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing, Guangdong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang) and Singapore.

The arrangement will be gradually expanded to include the other Chinese provinces and municipalities after further joint meetings and evaluation.

Both sides also agreed to explore the increase of air links between the two countries to facilitate the Fast Lane and essential business and official travel requirements.

Countries are talking about establishing travel bubbles or corridors to restart travel, specifically between nations that are successfully combating the spread of Covid-19. Similar “fast lane” bilateral agreements between other Asian nations that outline health and quarantine rules at both ends would help to kick start essential travel. If the joint measures keep the Covid-19 spread in check, opening up leisure travel could follow.

The talks between China and Singapore on establishing a so-called “Fast Lane” appear to be the first between China and a nation in Southeast Asia. Talks between China and Vietnam, as well as Thailand, are probably due soon, and that may lead to China establishing “fast lanes” for essential travel possibly in July.

The meeting between Singapore and China covered education, trade and industry, customs, immigration, transport and health.

Singaporean side will soon relax its circuit breaker measures and gradually resume its economic and social activities, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs concluded.

However, Singapore remains in phase one of the easing process. Moving to phase two could occur later this month, but it could still be months before phase three arrives in earnest.

Inconsistent stats (on 'community cases'). And got to split who the locals and rest work pass holders.
Why fudge the nos? Not just confusing, but also to justify measures?

It's thanks to the PAP that hardly anyone here has died from covid-19. The americans are dropping like fleas under Trump. Majulah PAP!
