are you surprise the community spread has been increasing on 3rd day after CB? How to social distancing at bus stop, in MRT and crowded places. Gov doesn't care about the health risk to people especially the students as they contribute huge revenue for the transport companies are more important. Gov has no effective ideas how to reduce infection spread in community if their self interest is all about money1st.

As long as there are positive Covid cases in Singapore whether migrants workers, PR or Citizens, Singapore is not free from this virus, chances of spreading still very high. As long as the positive Covid are here, we can get infected, worse some of the positive Covid cases don't show symptoms at all. Very soon Singapore likely to hit 40K infections and Singaporean who want to travel in future will be difficult as many other countries will set lots of barriers for us due to the our damaged country image.

some foreign workers living outside dorms may have symptoms but refrain to visit clinic as the cost may be too much for them, really worrying.

This is not a rise....it’s uncontrolled and selfishness.....mingling with confirmed cases and definitely not because of lifting of circuit breaker (too early to say)👎
