Europe just removed Singapore from list of safe countries 

It cannot be Singapore become safer and we are removed from their list.

What is happening in recent weeks is authorities playing to this euphemistic narrative of "living with covid" and making people complacent about their safety:

1. ART positive people infected with covid no need to report to MOH. No contact tracing is done. These people not counted anymore.

2. There is no discussion of problems like long covid. As if people just recover perfectly....no long term problems

3. Daily deaths are blamed on "underlying conditions" ..there is no definition. Many people think underlying is stage 3 cancer, kidney failure etc.  ..but it can be something mild like high blood pressure . We don't know .

4. Herd mentality is taking hold I see at risk groups like elderly just going out because others go out..not thinking about safety.

5. Everyday 12-15 people die every month 400 die from covid.  10-20% of those infected will get long term health problems...the number is 10-20K a month.

6. The authorities can craft a narrative to play down information or massage until you don't think about it.

7. Don't be a fool. Make your own assessment.

8. If loved ones get infected and pass on this cannot be undone. Every month 400+ families lose someone...

9. One ignores the risks until tragedy strikes. Then you wake up too late.
