RE: 'This is what endemicity should look like': Ong Ye Kung says Singapore - Sentinel - 14-04-2023
The Health Ministry is continuing to do genetic sequencing of viral samples. There are now multiple variants circulating ā XBB, XBB.1.5, XBB.1.9, XBB.1.16, XBB.2.3, BN.1, CH.1.1 ā without a clear dominant strain.
The most important aspect of any infection wave is the severity of symptoms and whether patients become hospitalised. There has been no evidence showing that any of the current XBB strains cause more severe illnesses, Mr Ong said.
He added: āWhat is happening is a clear demonstration of how far we have come. Even during a Covid-19 infection wave like now, we continue to live life normally, not pre-occupied over infection numbers, and not constantly talking about it. This is what endemicity should look like.ā
In other words, instead of using the word endemic to describe the govt's stance, the right word he shouldĀ use is "Bochap".

šš± Avoid Large crowded places
Singapore news:
Everyone is advised to wear a mask because the new COVID-Omicron XBB variant coronavirus is different, deadly and not easily detected properly:-Ā Symptoms of the XBB virus are as follows:
1. No cough.
2. No fever.
There will only be:Ā Ā Ā
3. Joint pain.
4. Headache.
5. Neck pain.
6. Upper back pain.
7. Pneumonia.
8. General loss of appetite.
XBB is 5 times more toxic than Delta variant and has a higher mortality rate. It takes a shorter time for the condition to reach extreme severity, and sometimes there are no obvious symptoms. This strain of the virus is not found in the nasopharyngeal region, and it directly affects the lungs, the "windows," for a relatively short period of time. Nasal swab tests are generally negative for COVID-Omicron XBB, and false-negative cases of nasopharyngeal tests are increasing.
This means the virus can spread in the community and directly infect lungs, leading to viral pneumonia, which in turn causes acute respiratory stress. XBB has become highly contagious, highly virulent and lethal. Avoid crowded places, keep a distance of 1.5m even in open spaces, wear a double-layer mask, wear a suitable mask, wash hands frequently even when everyone is asymptomatic (no coughing or sneezing).
Don't keep this information to yourself, share as much as possible with other relatives and friends, especially yours.

do remember them,
the PAP has brought all these upon you and your loved ones
just for GDP sake which

their bonuses and wellbeing as well
