"In particular, if you are going to an enclosed space with people in close proximity, make sure you wear a mask with high filtration capability," he said."It's not just wearing a cloth mask, but wear one with high filtration capability - a surgical mask or one of those with the filter inserts.
MOH said that mask use continues to be"one of the key public health strategies in preventing disease by reducing the expulsion and transmission of droplets"."The recent clusters suggest a higher level of transmission, likely attributed to new virus variants," it said. "Reusable masks such as masks issued by the People’s Association and Temasek Foundation also have good filtration efficiency."
This conversation would not be required if Singapore were vaccinating at similar rates to the best performing countries. Because if that were true the whole population would have had their 2 doses by now.
this hoe needs to stfu
What lack whatever attitude If you have shut the damn border way earlier instead of hesitating we would have been better off. Same with the Dorms and now this. Don't blink or blame. Decide and JUST DO IT!!
These “experts” don’t say it’s all the government fault as it would affect their pay packet!
Stay Home! Shouldn’t the “FTs” that Was imported have “stayed” home?! YOU buy problems and we suffer StayHome!! Now sumore kena “S’pore Variant” label!! 4th in most B1617 variant cases in the world! What else coming ah?!!!
Solid advice from the expert. Streets are way quieter but I will still bet that I can't walk even 400m outside without seeing a 'chinstrap' or 3. And my personal bugbear... SMOKERS walking along with a fag in hand and no mask. WHY? More aggressive policing needed, sadly.
Why don’t we ban sales of substandard masks and demand m info on the tests and certications of masks sold in Singapore, swift action needed in view of large spread of cases in local population, something that could be dine a year ago
First say healthy ppl no need mask, then any mask is good enough, now need certified surgical mask. Lucky nvr listen to them. Have always been wearing surgical masks since the start of outbreak last year.
Lolz everyone's fault but their own 😂
Everybody is following the rules such like wear mask and follow social distance so please dont blame us for the new variant outbreak.
I had to google for the meaning of lackadaisical...
Or stop blaming the people and take responsibility. Come up with a plan
