COVID-19 - No End In Sight

COVID19 PANDEMIC - INFECTIONS AT SINGAPORE WORKERS' DORMITORIES NO END IN SIGHT

After 4 months, the situation of COVID-19 infections is still not under control inside Singapore’s foreign workers' dormitories.

As reported by the Health Authority, there are between 200 to 400 cases on the average every day. This is not acceptable. It is taking too long to weed out infections inside the workers' dormitories. This will definitely spill over to the community once the foreign workers are allowed to leave their dormitories.

What does this mean?

Probable Answers:

1. The relevent leaders are probably taking it too easily or they still have no clue how to deal with it efficiently and effectively.

2. The Ministry for Health does not have any concrete viable plan to stamp out COVID19 infections in the foreign workers' dormitories on an urgent basis.

3. The policy could be to allow as many of the foreign workers be infected by the COVID-19 disease so as to achieve "Herd Immunity" on a large scale. If this is so, then it is not only foolhardy but also cruel and ruthless.

Whatever the reasons for the lacklustre actions, in the mean time, the workers are still being exposed continuously to infection and re-infection again and again, and are living like prisoners.

Even though many people have been reported "recovered" or "released from hospitals", their lungs and other organs could probably have been damaged beyond repair for life!

We know that only our liver can heal itself, if not badly damaged. However, all our other organs once damaged cannot repair themselves.

The damaged organs may not function in full force again and may lead to secondary causes of death in the future, unknown to the health authories or the sufferers/victims.

Therefore, it is wise not to let ourselves be infected by the Covid-19 coronavirus at all costs. Take all the necessary precautions to ensure that you stay alive in full health happily.

Never allow ourselves to be used as Guinea Pigs by any ruthless, unethical, immoral or easy-way-out policy formulated by unwise and imperfect men - politicians and scientists alike. We do so at our own peril.

May all be well and happy!
May all enjoy good health and longevity.
May all have the will to see things as they are.
May all stay in perfect equanimity!
