For old people, order to create immunity is very slow whether vaccinated or not. This is also for those with 2 doses. Now, these groups of people are taking 3 doses.

however if they have underlying illness, then they have to decide as  
some younger with underlying illness may also not suitable.
Heart problem, High blood pressure, Diabetes.

Delta variant is different from other variant, as it kill rate is high due to higher viral load,

Which cluster did they come from? "The 3 deaths include 2 patients who were unable to walk and had limited movement outside their homes".


One month ago was a hike in Jurong Fishery that led to many wet markets having to close temporarily-

According to a list of the affected markets released by MOH, most of the places have had fewer than three cases. They include Amoy Street Food Centre, Ang Mo Kio Central Market & Food Centre, Teban Garden Market, Tiong Bahru Market and Tekka Centre (CNA, 21 July 2021)

Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?
