That's over a period of more than 2 years so if you look at the annual figures it is far less fatal than the flu.
Leemember the initial period pap was using young bangla to increase the leenominator. Actual count started from the day when using real numbers.

These data are useless to Singaporeans, they only care about going to mall and restaurants. And shout "No choice No choice!!" while doing the scan entry.

If covid cases go up...it is the peoples' fault.

If covid cases come down...it is the gahmen's efforts.

The population was prevented from interacting for almost 2 years so of course when the floodgates open there will be a spike in fatalities.

Just relax and take a long term view. In a year or so the data will show that the number of excess deaths was minimal.

It will be interesting to know if any leeinfection case were part of the fatalities.

Singaporeans only care about malls and restaurants, such logic are largely ignored by them.

SINGAPORE — The Ministry of Health (MOH) confirmed 22,201 new COVID-19 cases, up from 13,520 infections a day before, and 15 more deaths in Singapore on Tuesday (8 March).
The country's total case count now stands at 868,542. Over the last 28 days, 444,923 cases were reported, of whom 99.7 per cent had no or mild symptoms.
Of the new cases on Tuesday, 21,986, or 99 per cent, are local – 19,294 were detected via antigen rapid tests (ART), while 2,692 were detected via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests.
The remaining 215 are imported, of whom 157 were detected via ART and 58 via PCR tests.
The additional 15 COVID-19 related deaths reported on Tuesday bring the total death toll here to 1,099.
The weekly infection growth rate – or ratio of community cases for the past week over the week before – remained at 0.95. This marks the seventh consecutive day that the rate dipped under one.
A figure of less than one means that the number of new weekly cases is on the decline.
A total of 16,667 cases were discharged, while 1,499 remain warded, up from 1,477 on Monday.
Of those still hospitalised, 190 require oxygen supplementation, while 49 are in the intensive care unit (ICU).
As of Monday, 91 per cent of the total population have completed the full vaccination regimen, while 69 per cent have received their booster shots.

The more you vax, the worse it gets. Until that is acknowledged, this will be the norm. :cool:

Learn from certain countries with less draconian Covid measures and a much lower vaccination rate. They're doing fine now. Step back from your medical establishment and political elitism hubris. Keep gaslighting the people and sooner or later Nuremberg 2.0 will arrive... the noose will tighten around your pencil necks. :wink:

1 million cases soon. according to recent MOH data. unvaxxed 20% and vaxxed 80% took up the hospital medical resources. covid deaths - 30% unvaxxed and 70% vaxxed. take note partially vaxxed is counted as unvaxxed. 95% of eligible population are fully vaxxed.

All these are directed by the MTFF PAP.
Why need to Group the percentage of unvaxxed and one dose vaxxed, it doesn't take much to separate the two at all. Or is it due to face?

Maybe unvaxxed never take up any hospital resource at all. So need to Group it with one dose.

SINGAPORE — Singapore is taking another tentative step towards living with COVID-19 as it will streamline safe management measures (SMM) from Tuesday (15 March), more than two weeks after the plan was postponed due to a surge in infected cases.
The multi-ministry taskforce on COVID-19 (MTF) on Friday said during a virtual press conference that it will allow, among others, groups of five to visit homes at any one time and social gatherings of up to five at workplaces.
It is part of the so-called SMM 1–5 framework announced, which will apply to:
  • Group sizes
  • Mask-wearing
  • Workplace requirements
  • Safe distancing
  • Capacity limits
The move was initially set to take place on 24 February but was postponed amid high COVID case numbers and hospital occupancy. It was again postponed last Saturday.
However, there will not be any streamlining or easing of restrictions on nightlife activities, such as the sale of alcohol past 10.30pm, and, and live music.
"That's something we are studying very carefully and as I said, when we are ready, we will provide further details," said Finance Minister Lawrence Wong, who is also taskforce co-chair.
Health Minister and co-chair Ong Ye Kung stressed that most significantly, streamlining of measures will allow sports activities to resume, adding that there is no clear evidence that such activities drive infections.
"After two years of suspending sporting activities, the suspension is taking its toll, especially among our young. In the coming weeks, the Ministry of Culture, Community, and Youth will bring back sporting activities progressively, starting with selected operator supervised facilities," he added.
The SMM 1 to 5 as well as the resumption of sports are "essential steps" to prepare Singapore to live with COVID-19 and enable authorities to progressively ease the SMMs when conditions further improve in time to come, Ong noted.

Group sizes​

As group size directly affects the number of close contacts in society, and is likely to be the key factor in driving infections, the permissible group size for social gatherings remains at five persons.
However, the maximum number of unique visitors per household will be adjusted from five persons per day, to five persons at any one time.
"This may be seen as an easing (of measures) in some sense, but in fact, most households do not receive new sets of visitors outside of festive periods," said Wong.
"Those who want to meet multiple groups of friends, they're probably already doing so outside of their homes anyway."

Mask-wearing​

Mask-wearing will continue to be required as a default, as it confers significant protection against infection.

Workplace requirements​

While the current posture of allowing up to 50 per cent of employees who can work from home to return to the office will be maintained, workers who have face masks on will not need to maintain safe distancing in the workplace and social gatherings of up to five persons will be allowed.

Safe distancing​

Safe distancing is still required for all mask-off settings, and encouraged but not required for mask-on settings. However, the distance will be streamlined to a single safe distance of one metre for all settings.

Capacity limits​

Specific event size limits for events such as religious services, business events will be lifted, and will instead be set based on the capacity of the venue.
For large events and settings of more than 1,000 pax, such as attractions, cruises and MICE and large work-related events, a capacity limit of 50 per cent will be set. For smaller settings and events with 1,000 pax or less, they can proceed without any capacity limit.
