Serious PLAYING WITH FIRE TO GET SINKIES CHARRED

Everyone knows India, Pakistan and many other countries where Covid19 is rampant, it is dangerous to allow people from these countries to enter SG even though they are permanent shits working and residing in the country.

Yet, on several occasions, the pappies allowed these PS from India, Pakistan and Indonesia to masok SG as if they have the rights like a citizen. For heaven's sake, these PS are foreigners and should be denied entry and told to remain in their home country until this pandemic is over.

For every high risk PS allowed into the country, the pappies are exposing sinkies especially those frontliners to getting infected with Covid19. These pappies handing this pandemic have half dead brain.

Moreover, all PS with working brain cells now know pappies will provide them with medical treatment if they are detected to have Covid infection. What does it mean? Planeloads of these PS will flood into SG and overwhelm the medical facilities and services. Impossible to happen?

What is happening now is just the rumble of the volcano of what to come.

A 44-year-old permanent resident of Singapore, who returned from India, has tested positive for the COVID-19.

The woman, whose nationality has not been disclosed, returned from India on June 24 and was placed on Stay-Home Notice (SHN) at a dedicated facility upon arrival. She developed symptoms on Saturday and tested positive on Tuesday, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said.

There are four imported cases in the country, all of whom have been placed on SHN or isolated upon arrival in Singapore. The woman, who returned from India, was among the 246 new coronavirus infections confirmed by the health ministry on Tuesday and was initially counted as a community case but later reclassified as an imported one.

Why are pappies so irresponsible and stupid to allow PS to enter SG when it is common sense to tell them to fuck off and get treatment in their home country if infected? Is SG now becoming a country to all foreigners to get tested and treated for Covid?

Perhaps, it is time to whack the pappies in GE2020 and show them sinkies' lives matter during this pandemic.

Nothing is going to change if you let the husband and wife team continue to hold the country hostage. They have sold out the country for their various globalist neoliberal interests.

Covid-19 is a very minor infection for the vast majority of those that catch it so there is no reason to be unduly concerned. Just bite the bullet and carry on with your normal routine.

Life is never perfect and never risk free but that does not mean we have to spend the future cowering in fear.

80,000 Americans died of the flu last winter. Get your flu shot.
Julia [email protected]@voxmedia.com

5-6 minutes


Eighty thousand Americans died of the the flu last season, according to preliminary data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
That’s more than the number killed in traffic collisions, from gun violence, or from opioid overdoses.
It was also the deadliest flu season since 1976, when the agency starting publishing annual influenza trends, CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield told the Associated Press in the fall.
Seasonal influenza is a killer, even in milder years. Lately, mild flu seasons tend to kill about 12,000 Americans, and more severe flu seasons kill up to 56,000.
But 80,000 deaths is an unusually large toll. Here’s what led to the massive spike — and why you should get your flu shot.
Why last year’s flu season got so bad
Flu is a viral respiratory disease, and it leads to nasty fevers, headaches, coughs, muscle pains, and runny noses that make many people miserable in the fall and winter.
There are four kinds of influenza viruses — A, B, C, and D — and seasonal flu is caused by influenza A and B. Every year, different strains of these viruses circulate. Last year’s flu season was more severe than usual because it involved the dreaded H3N2, a strain of the influenza A virus that causes more health complications and is more difficult to prevent.
H3N2 hits can be especially deadly among vulnerable groups like the elderly and children. Researchers still aren’t sure why, but they’ve found that a flu season where the H3 virus is dominant is generally nastier — with more hospitalizations and flu-related deaths — than seasons with mostly H1N1 or influenza B viruses. And last year, the majority of flu cases involved the H3N2 strain.
H3N2 is especially difficult to prevent with the flu shot
Another reason for the severity of last year’s flu season is that the H3N2 virus is hard to prevent with the flu vaccine. To understand why, you need to understand how the flu vaccine works — and why it is by no means perfect.
The vaccine is designed to protect people against three or four strains of the A and B viruses that researchers believe will be most common in a given year. So every year, public health agencies essentially make educated guesses as to what strains and mutations will make the rounds. As you can imagine, this is no easy task — and in reviews of the research on flu vaccine effectiveness, researchers have found that years when H3N2 is circulating tend to be years when the vaccine is less effective.
Edward Belongia, a senior epidemiologist at the Marshfield Clinic Research Institute in Wisconsin who has studied flu vaccine effectiveness, found that during H3N2 seasons, the combined vaccine effectiveness was 33 percent. That meant getting vaccinated reduced a person’s risk of having to go to the doctor by about a third. The flu shot’s effectiveness rose to 54 percent during influenza type B seasons, and 67 percent during H1N1 seasons.
So, as researchers anticipated, studies on how well the flu vaccine worked last season in America suggested it fared worse than in previous years.
Your friendly reminder to get a flu shot
If you haven’t gotten the shot, get it. The flu season runs until the spring, and there’s still plenty of time to protect yourself and your family.
As we’ve reported before, flu vaccines carry very little risk — and the big potential benefit of avoiding serious illness. That’s why Belongia argues even some protection is better than no protection. “[It] still prevents a lot of hospitalizations and deaths,” he said.
Even if the vaccine isn’t a good match for H3N2, it offers better protection against other flu viruses going around. And the AP reported that this year, health officials expect those milder strains, which are better prevented by the vaccine, to dominate.
Plus, getting the vaccine isn’t only about protecting yourself; it’s about protecting others through herd immunity. “Vaccinated people essentially act as barriers to outbreaks, since diseases can’t pass through them and infect others,” my colleague German Lopez explained. “ If a sufficient percentage of the herd is immune, diseases can’t spread to enough people to thrive.” So even if you think you can shrug off a bout of influenza, you could spread it to more vulnerable people who can’t.
Older people, young children, pregnant women, and anyone with a compromised immune system is particularly vulnerable to influenza. So herd immunity and the vaccine is especially important for these groups. Last year, 80 percent of pediatric deaths occurred in children who were unvaccinated, according to the CDC.
As for treating flu, most people can just wait out their sickness at home, getting lots of rest and taking care not to infect others. But people in those high-risk groups — young children, pregnant women, people over age 65, people with other chronic diseases — may want to seek immediate medical attention and antivirals like Tamiflu.
In the meantime, there are other, even simpler things you can do to mitigate your risk of getting the flu or spreading the virus to others. They include good old-fashioned hand-washing, covering your mouth when you cough, and staying home if you’re sick.

New Jersey driver crashes car after passing out from wearing N95 mask
By Craig McCarthy

2 minutes



A New Jersey driver crashed head-on into a pole — after passing out from wearing an N95 mask for hours, police said Friday.
Lincoln Park police believe that the driver, who was not named, lost consciousness while behind the wheel Thursday from lack of oxygen and breathing in excessive carbon dioxide thanks to the mask, the department wrote on Facebook.
“The LPPD responded to a lone occupant single car motor vehicle crash yesterday. The crash is believed to have resulted from the driver wearing an N95 mask for several hours and subsequently passing out behind the wheel due to insufficient oxygen intake/excessive carbon dioxide intake,” the cops wrote.
“We also know that nothing was uncovered at the accident scene that would suggest that the driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
“While we don’t know [the cause] with 100% certainty, we do know that the driver had been wearing an N95 mask inside the vehicle for several hours and ultimately passed out while operating the vehicle,” the department said.
Police told residents that while they should continue to follow Gov. Phil Murphy’s guidelines for wearing face coverings in public, wearing an N95 mask while driving with “no other occupants is unnecessary.”
Still, “We are not trying to cause public alarm or suggest wearing an N95 mask is unsafe,” the department added.
The driver was taken to a local hospital, where the person was treated for non-life-threatening injuries, cops said.

Be that as it may, the fact remains that many unpleasant infections could have been avoided had the PAP not prostituted Singapore to all and sundry, in particular, India.

I never understand why drivers who are alone inside their cars need to wear a mask. Scared of getting fined? Or will the mask provide extra protection during a car collision?

they allow them in so as to justify supporting the hotels being used as quarantine areas. No quarantine hotels -> No business -> no jobs -> election time -> BIG PROBLEM

Ingrate xenophobe! India has created many good jobs in Singapore. It is only right we award these job creators with the right to reside in our fine city. :smile:
