Endemic or Pandemic ?
Can MTF make up your mind ?
IF this is endemic, the call for stabilising phase to slow down the speed of transmission seems contradictory.
IF this is pandemic, is it appropriate to allow unvaccinated HK/Macau/China and VTL Germany/Brunei travellers enter without SHN at govt dedicated facilities ?
My instinct tells me we are heading into more trouble.
Since April when Delta virus entered, we are already experiencing big clusters. Till now, MTF is NOT able to break the infection chain yet.
If mutated new virus Mu/Lamdba enter via imports again, are you able to manage ?
I am NOT against border reopening. I fully understand Singapore cannot close border for long term as we need ESSENTIAL workers, necessities and food supplies.
However, for NON-ESSENTIAL travellers, my question - “IS THIS THE RIGHT TIME” ?
I seriously hope MTF can re-evaluate border measures and look into how the RISK OF IMPORT CASES can be minimise to safeguard Singaporean.
MTF has stopped disclosing “possible exposure” in our TraceTogether app, stopped reporting UNLINKED cases, stopped announcing clusters (unless big).
With so many UNKNOWNS, how do we live with virus ?
The recent Home Quarantine/Recovery program, many Singaporean voice confusion and frustration with no support given.
If MTF can’t even handle 2-3k daily infection cases , how do you manage 5-10k ?
Are we ready for Endemic.
In the 1st place, do we Singaporean even agree to accept it as endemic ?
Easy for you to say live with virus, with data shown vaccine efficacy wane, are we prepared to take never ending booster jabs every 6 months ?
Furthermore for medically unfit people and children below 12 years old who cannot take the vaccine, do we just leave them behind ?
Singaporean must take care of each other, the Strong ones must protect the weak vulnerable, this is the basic belief which we all should hold
MOH data shown 27/9 - 6/10, there are total 125 imports. Our healthcare systems are already overstretched and locals need to recover at home, do we even hv enough hospital beds for these imports ?
Seeing 3+k infection cases daily and with prediction of even 5-10k, my heart really ache.
All our past 1+ year efforts seem to hv gone into drain.
US has already raise our travel risk alert to level 3, if cases continue to increase uncontrollably, we will soon be level 4 and the world will shut us.
Majority Singaporean hv heed MTF advise to vaccinate, diligently wear masks, reduce social activities, obediently do SafeEntry, follow SMM, conduct regular ART tests etc. What have we NOT done ?
Think is time to have a two-way frank communication between Govt and Singaporean. We need to reach consensus what is the RISK LEVEL all can accept.
Being a small country with no natural resources, the only asset we have is Singaporean -
Between HEALTH and wealth, the choice is actually very clear.
Life is very precious.
All we want is our family and love ones be safe and healthy. Is this too much to ask for ?
Last year, MTF has done an excellent job. Now, I just hope you can pause the endemic plan, re-evaluate the situation and make sure we are really going into the RIGHT direction.
Kindly note the attached petition - CONCERNS FOR IMPORT CASES
Lastly, I hope Singapore can tide through this crisis, irregardless of race, language or religion, vaccinated or unvaccinated
