No. Cos the poor gets rich but the rich gets richer. Is unfair distribution. 

What happens next after spending to the $$ to boost retail? To me, is just short term.

Although our cash distribution is small, but we have U-Save vouchers n conservancy rebates. Elderly gets passion top up. Grocery vouchers for low income.

Is almost the same after all the mathematics

Coronavirus: Chinese couple to be charged under Infectious Diseases Act with giving false info to MOH officials

The MOH said that the couple had given false information to its officials about their movements and whereabouts from Jan 22 to Jan 29 when they were contacted for the purposes of contact tracing. Shi had also provided false information while under quarantine.

 

However, the ministry said it was able to find out the couple’s true movements through detailed investigations.

 

It said the couple will be charged on Friday in view of the potentially serious repercussions of the false information given by the pair and the risk they could have posed to public health.

 

Anyone convicted of an offence under the Infectious Diseases Act can be fined up to $10,000 or jailed up to six months, or both, for the first offence.

Man who breached coronavirus stay-home notice stripped of Singapore PR status, barred from re-entry

 

 

SINGAPORE - A 45-year-old Singapore permanent resident (PR) who breached stay-home notice (SHN) requirements while he was in Singapore from Feb 20 to 23 has lost his PR status.

 

He has also been barred from re-entering Singapore, the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) said on Wednesday (Feb 26).

 

According to the ICA, the man was served with the notice on Feb 20 when he arrived at Changi Airport as he had travel history to mainland China in the past 14 days.

[Guest Corvid9 Fear]

Once contact tracing activated, one cannot get away hwithis is mobile phone, his ezlink cards...etc...if it hits sauna...it be shamed and terrible.

 

So guys please stay away.

 

Contact tracing is no joke. You can lie, but  cannot get away.

26th Feb 2020

             Two individuals have been charged under the Infectious Diseases Act for giving false information to officials from the Ministry of Health (MOH) and obstructing the conduct of contact tracing.

2.          The defendants are Hu Jun, a 38 year-old male Chinese national from Wuhan, and his wife Shi Sha, a 36 year-old female Chinese national who resides in Singapore. Hu arrived in Singapore on 22 January 2020 and was confirmed to be infected with COVID-19 on 31 January. Shi had been identified as a close contact of Hu and was issued a Quarantine Order on 1 February. Hu has since fully recovered from the infection and had been discharged from hospital on 19 February.

3.            Once a COVID-19 case is confirmed, MOH initiates contact tracing to identify individuals who may have been exposed to the case while he/she was symptomatic. Close contacts are monitored closely and may be quarantined, so that they can be identified and treated early if they develop the disease. This measure also prevents close contacts from mingling in the community if they become symptomatic, and helps to contain further transmission of COVID-19. 

4.          Both Hu and Shi had given false information to MOH officials about their movements and whereabouts from 22 January to 29 January when they were contacted for the purposes of contact tracing. Shi had also provided false information while under quarantine. However MOH was able to establish their true movements through detailed investigations.

5.            In view of the potentially serious repercussions of the false information given by the defendants, and the risk they could have posed to public health, MOH has served Hu and Shi charges on 25 February. The case will be heard in Court on 28 February.

6.            Any person convicted of an offence under the Infectious Diseases Act is liable to a fine not exceeding $10,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months, or to both, for the first offence. 

7.             MOH reminds the public that under the Infectious Diseases Act, it is an offence under the law for anyone to withhold or provide inaccurate information to MOH officials during contact tracing. MOH views such actions seriously and will not hesitate to take appropriate action against the perpetrators.

Temp taking is useless if it's merely measuring ambient temperature.  Best is to stick it up the ass. Most accurate.  In any case,  can be passed by bodily fluids like saliva and semen, so unless you glad wrap your entire body except where it matters,  no amount of pre entry checks is going to work.  

 

I guess it will be super sia suay if really kenna, then must declare for contact tracing that you went to keybox. Not only relatives will know, local media will spotlight keybox as a potential cluster.  Then all saunas kenna locked down...

[Guest Local]

I fully support the authority’s decision to revoke PR status of anyone who disregards quarantine orders.
 

While the government takes pain to try to contain the virus, some people just do not understand the severity of their misbehaviour. 
 

Let this serves as a warning to others who wilfully breach the strict order. It is not a time to be lenient.

I don't get it. Why would a pair of Chinese nationals (Case 8 and 9) from Wuhan arrive on 19 Jan,  and then go visit a church for no reasons, especially when they are not even known to the church? Since when did THE LIFE CHURCH AND MISSIONS become a tourist attraction? And the population of Christians in China only account to about 5% or so of the population. This sounds so weird to me...

 

This question on Cases 8 and 9 were brought up long ago on why these two PRCs went to visit a church where they have no affiliations with, and where nobody knows them at all. Now that we know they have spread the virus to so many people in the two churches, and that they flew into Singapore just days before Wuhan was locked down, as well as how PRCs have been caught on camera to deliberately spread the virus to their own countrymen, it makes me wonder if they went to the church to spread the virus deliberately knowing full well that they are sick. This is scary.

I am not sure if they intend to spread to others but the 8 hours before wuhan locked down,  millions would have run out to seek treatment since most countries offered free treatment out of goodwill.

 

I think a lot of cases is very suspicious, how did the first seletar construction site case start? Why got 8 cases classified as unknown? Is there any places in SG that don't have CCTV monitored? Yes,  our tracking system is good but if people want to lie,  I think there is still a way to do it.

8 hours before wuhan locked down,  millions could have already flee to seek treatment in other countries since most countries provide free treatment.

I think this flu is a whole lot more widespread than those official reports as symptoms and its severity vary widely, like in Korea, the more they test, more come up positive. Locally we already have so many unknown cases for so many days with so many branching vectors and not including those that we are potentially still importing.

US embassy raises 'critical' coronavirus concerns with Indonesia

[Guest Guest]

This entire issue is a really good wake up call for the over-reliance on globalization and the lack of confidence of the local capabilities. This is almost a textbook classic case of what can happen in the reliance of any single source, in this case, China, for cheap labour and cheap supplies, simply because of our leaders lack of confidence of our local capabilities. 

 

We are only lucky that this lesson came to us by the nature's command in the form of a virus. Wait till a serious shortage of essential supplies happens because of political wills and/or coersion. We might be on our knees surrendering our sovereignty to bigger powers then. I really hope we will wake up from this very timely lesson now.

I personally think saunas are a ticking time bomb at the moment. As you said, temp taking is a pure placebo measure: COVID-19 isn't SARS where you only are infectious when you start getting feverish. So all it takes is for one person who doesn't even know he might have come into contact with COVID-19 somewhere somehow to go to the sauna, display no symptoms, fuck around, and boom, new cluster. 

 

And imagine how it'd be like if that happens, and gay saunas appear in the news. Can definitely see them all clamped down for being health hazards, and moral attacks made on the local LGBT community for the mere existence of gay saunas for gay people to hook up for NSA sex. By which point it won't just be sauna lockdown, but possibly the instant death of the entire industry.
