We r on tenterhooks every minute n every secs can b bombarded with delta... MSM report is as easy job as oyk blah blah behind the mic... as the health minister walk the talk... feel the ground... take a look at the kins losing their seniors day after day... what is he afraid of paying visits to hospitals to show support to the ground staffs?

Best is to do away with the trace together too. What’s the whole point of weekly report….all the informations are collated by the government and they either be open or honest about it or simply lie about it or not reporting them at all.
And by giving a delayed report was meant to avoid people from getting paranoid, then do away with reporting or trace together and simply let the virus take its course.
Covering our ears to steal the bell or ostrich mentality is one way to say the least about this suggestion.

that mean one week of their salary also must cut to reflect the issue of not reporting daily. news are the basic of economy, no news report daily which mean importance message is not informed.Then why be a reporter. since we dont have a first hand new, lot of things will be in chaotic.

PAP is testing the balloon again, lah.
Grace Foo also did it once in 2013 from 3- hourly average readings.
So many complaints bombarded her until she had to revert back to 24 hourly and then 3 hourly readings.

This is why SPH has to sell its newspaper business. Journalism standards going to the pits, so few people want to read ST anymore. First time I have heard a journalist call for less transparency rather than more.

Report daily, the numbers will look lesser. If report weekly, people will be shocked if they see 10k
