Comment: the virus still has not gotten out of hand in Singapore, but one thing that I notice, they have been battling this a long time and the case number is staying around 5 time the discharge number. This is just a reminder of how long a curse of illness we are talking about here - 2 to 4 weeks (even more for some)
*course not curse. But its curse too
I am interested in the Singapore clusters. The report you linked to says: “The eight imported cases[2] had travel history to Europe, North America, ASEAN and other parts of Asia.”
One of these cases has to have been a missionary from Singapore that came to my city in Feb or early Mar to speak at churches. I know of 2 small churches he did speak at. I don’t know where else he travelled to. He’s what they call a ‘super-spreader’. He didn’t have any symptoms until he went back to Singapore. However, with 48 hours, several members of the churches he visited ended up with symptoms including the couple who hosted him. 2 or 3 ended up in ICU. One is still on a ventilator. I think the missionary is alive but could be hospitalized. I think the ones who came down sick just shook hands with him. It’s a sad story.
