OYK: I'm afraid I've no anwers on best battleplan against C19 but you are fortunate cause you have me

[BaeSuzy]

9. This is where we stand currently: Over the past 23 days, which was when the current wave started, there were about 6,600 new infections detected, with seven admissions to ICUs and two deaths, predominantly accounted for by unvaccinated individuals. The next few weeks will be crucial.

40. So I am afraid I have no answers on what is the best battleplan against COVID-19. I can only share that we are at a critical moment and the outcomes in the coming weeks will guide our next steps. We are in this current position, because of the unique approach that Singapore has taken to accelerate our vaccination programme and take calibrated steps to re-open our society and economy.

41. This is an outcome of medical science, as well as a people who are prepared to hold the fort against the virus until we feel we are sufficiently inoculated, and we are fortunate to be in the position to adopt this approach.

In other words, you are gambling. While being blissfully unaware of the situation in Israel now.

Why so late no numbers?

 

[lostvirgin]

Oh dear, are we staking our lives on his unproven theory?

 

[glockman]

They are always saying "The next few weeks will be crucial" or "The next few weeks will be critical". Fuck lah, who doesn't know! Since mid-2020, every day, every week, every month is critical.

[eatshitndie]

less than 6.9k infections in 23 days and only 6.9 admissions to icu? aiyah! open up liao lah! why so unsure and so scared?

[tobelightlight]

Those who kanna vaxx, do you regret to listen to such character and incompetence as a "leader"? He has no idea what he is doing and just want KPI.
You allow yourself to be a KPI and in the end you screw yourself. still not wake up yet?

The pro-Pappies will surely ask you back - "If you are so capable, do you have any alternative solutions?"

Improving!

 

[Balls2U]

Not for long.

 

[porcaputtana]

Nothing surprising here

as we open up the numbers are sure to climb

including death rates

the key number is ICU resources . because if even 1% of the 500,000 unvaccinated (that’s 5000) succumbs then ICU will be overwhelmed

that means your beloved ah gong ah ma will be denied ICU care if needed because some pro choice anti vaxx fuckwit is occupying one bed and laughing at you for paying

Idiots who are illiterate and didn’t go RI love to misinterpret numbers to push their fake science agenda . Fucking losers

 

[porcaputtana]

The pro-Pappies will surely ask you back - "If you are so capable, do you have any alternative solutions?"

The obvious alternative solution is repeated lock downs . A la aussie and kiwi land

how are those turning out ?

 

[porcaputtana]

My prediction is it will hit around 1000 and then taper

my only criticism for the government is why bother to test at all ? It will just give the anti vaxx retards reason to scream that the vaccines don’t work

don‘t test, don’t bother . make vaccines compulsory and jab the living shit out of everyone so no one falls seriously sick

it’s endemic . 100% of us will eventually get it anyway

Denmark has dropped all restrictions after reaching the target vaccination rate so I don't see why Singapore can't just go down the same route.

Of course there will be deaths but that's life.

Denmark lifts the last of its Covid restrictions​

AFP

4 minutes

---

DENMARK HAS DITCHED the requirement for vaccine passports in nightclubs, ending its last domestic Covid curb.

The vaccine passports were introduced in March 2021 when Copenhagen slowly started easing restrictions.

They were abolished at all venues on 1 September, except in nightclubs, where they will be no longer necessary from today.
Tomorrow, a sold-out concert in Copenhagen will welcome 50,000 people, a first in Europe.

Already on 4 September Live Nation organised a first open-air festival which gathered 15,000 people in Copenhagen.

73% of Denmark’s 5.8 million population is fully vaccinated. Of those aged 65 and older, 96% are fully jabbed.

‘Aiming for free movement’

“We’re aiming for free movement… What will happen now is that the virus will circulate and it will find the ones who are not vaccinated,” epidemiologist Lone Simonsen told AFP.

“Now the virus is no longer a societal threat, thanks to the vaccine,” said Simonsen, who works at the University of Roskilde. However, people who are fully vaccinated can still test positive for Covid-19.

Deputy Chief Medical Officer Dr Ronan Glynn told RTÉ last month: “No vaccine is 100% effective, so there will be cases in people who are fully vaccinated.
“But the key element of this is the really fantastic effectiveness of these vaccines against symptomatic disease, and even more importantly, against serious disease that results in hospitalisation, and admission to critical care, or death.”

According to the World Health Organization, Denmark has benefitted from public compliance with government guidelines and the Covid strategy adopted.
“Like many countries, Denmark has, throughout the pandemic, implemented public health and social measures to reduce transmission. But at the same time it has greatly relied on individuals and communities to comply voluntarily,” said Catherine Smallwood, WHO Europe’s emergency officer.

With around 500 daily Covid cases and a reproduction rate of 0.7, Danish authorities say they have the virus under control.

Health Minister Magnus Heunicke has however vowed that the government would not hesitate to swiftly reimpose restrictions if necessary. Authorities insist that the return to normal life must be coupled with strict hygiene measures and the isolation of sick people.

The WHO still considers the global situation critical and has urged caution.

“Every country needs to remain vigilant as and when the epidemiological situation changes,” Smallwood said.

Denmark has said it will keep a close eye on the number of hospitalisations – just under 130 at the moment – and conduct meticulous sequencing to follow the virus.

A third vaccine dose has also been available to at-risk groups since yesterday.

Simonsen said the vaccines have so far provided immunity from variants “but if escape variants [resistant to the vaccine] were to appear, we will have to rethink our strategy.”

Travellers entering Denmark must still present either a vaccine passport or a negative PCR test, and masks are mandatory in airports.

Indeed . My buddies in Europe says it’s back to pre Covid swinging

Our PAP is too overly fucking cautious .

in fact I will accuse them of show boating now

show the world other than math and riches we are also number 1 in high vaccination rate and lowest in mortality rate

our politicians are notoriously thin skinned . Looking bad is not an option

 

[dredd]

Not for long.

Numbers are now irrelevant as 90% of Sinkees are fully vaccinated. As long as death rates are low and ICU beds are not impacted by the antivaxx morons, we should not be too concerned with how many are infected.

Now's the time for Sam to ask: How many are actually sick?
