SINGAPORE, June 17 (Bernama) -- Singapore confirmed 17 new cases of Influenza A(H1N1) today, the biggest number so far reported in a single day, bringing the toll of confirmed cases to 66.

The majority of the new cases or 10 are Singaporeans and permanent residents, while the rest are an Australian woman and two Filipina domestic helpers, and four foreign males – a Chilean, an Australian and two Americans, including a five-year-old boy who was on transit from California enroute to Chennai, India.

The cases whose ages range from five to 53, had been travelling in the Philippines, the United States, Europe and Australia since last month and arrived in the city-state this week.

In its latest update tonight, the Health Ministry said all the new cases were travellers returning from countries with known community transmission of H1N1.

Some of the cases were individuals who proceeded with their travel or meetings and social activities despite having developed symptoms, it said.

The ministry said with many Singaporeans returning from their June holidays or coming home for their summer vacation from countries such as the US, the United Kingdom and Australia, it could expect an increase in the number of imported cases of H1N1.

I can be exponential scale when it spread locally. So watch out!

I happened to spent 1 hour this morning @ TTSH A&E observing the activities. They made mata also wear face masks. The security guards are wearing goggles plus face masks. :rolleyes:

The entire A & E areas was filthy and dusty like a war zone, not be cause of H1N1, but because of construction works. So these goggles & masks came in very practically :wink: I think they should also wear ear plugs, because the construction site at A&E was hacking and hammering everywhere. Very bad for high blood pressure cases!

The entrance path to A & E - a stretch of temp flooring about 30 meters, are full of pot-holes and gravels - very very rough. & Every wheelchair & Every Bed Trolley had to be pushed over these bad surfaces and bump the poor patients all the way into A & E from the ambulances. Pity those suffering wounds & fractures, it must be OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! OUCH! All the way from ambulances to A & E. Damn First World! Got to see it to believe it. I almost wanted to take out my camera to put a YouTube clip up. But I am giving them a chance. I just post here, hope they will improve.

:wink:

No H1N1 death yet, so Hell Minister Cow said they will change strategy from containment to mitigation.

Like that sure die one, spread like wildfire soon.
