Singapore is experiencing a new wave of COVID-19, with authorities recording over 25,900 cases from May 5 to 11. Health Minister Ong Ye Kung advised the public to wear masks again on Saturday.
“We are at the beginning part of the wave where it is steadily rising,” Kung stated. “So, I would say the wave should peak in the next two to four weeks, which means between mid- and end of June,” he told The Straits Times.
The Ministry of Health (MOH) reported that the number of COVID-19 cases increased significantly, from 13,700 the previous week to 25,900 in the week of May 5 to 11. Average daily hospitalisations rose to about 250 from 181 the previous week, while intensive care unit (ICU) cases remained low, increasing slightly from two to three daily.

In Singapore, one must toe the line. The place had a weird feel to it.

Singapore does not need this accidentally-on purposely placed virus game a second time. They are probably worried about attracting the tourists back. Singapore already has enough problems with those wild monkeys stealing food and attacking people. Not sure why they don’t just shoot those little troublemakers.

Still better than our ghettopolises.

67% of Singapore is fully jabbed (meaning they’ve had their boo$ters) ... 81% are partially jabbed.
Pandemic of the Jabbed.
