so can go common corridor walk walk or not if under cv19 home recovery scheme.

i tink even after recovery, yr neighbour will siam u for at least half a year. haaaa


Home recovery scheme to be expanded to fully vaccinated COVID-19 cases up to 69 years old
www.channelnewsasia.com

Since Sep 15, home recovery has been the default care management model for suitable COVID-19 patients who are 50 or younger.

According to MOH, 597 fully vaccinated COVID-19 cases, including 13 children between five and 11 years old have “successfully started” their home recovery journey.

"This is close to a third of the community cases for the past two days, which is highly encouraging, as we see more individuals taking personal empowerment to take care of their own health and recovery," said MOH.

Since the pilot started on Aug 30, 32 of them have been discharged.

The Health Ministry said the data "continues to show" that fully vaccinated people are less at risk of severe illness, including those under the age of 70 years.

The expanded suitability criteria for home recovery will allow more COVID-19 patients to recover "within the comfort of their homes", and for hospital resources to be further directed to those who "really need more intensive care", said MOH.

FDA Panel Rejects Broad Pfizer Booster Jabs, Endorses Limited Shots For "At Risk" Elderly​

A panel of senior advisors for the FDA voted against approving a third dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech jab for every patient over the age of 16, while leaving a door open to approving booster jabs for a more limited portion of the population including the elderly and the immuno-compromised.

The final vote tally was Yes: 2, No: 16, Abstain: 0.

The government is pushing to achieve herd immunity to protect the population from Covid 19 through infection and vaccinations.
As long as the healthcare system is not overwhelmed and ICU and death rate stay low , they are willing to accept the high number of infection.

Herd immunity and COVID-19 (coronavirus): What you need to know​

Understand what's known about herd immunity and what it means for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Curious about progress toward herd immunity against the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)? Understand how herd immunity works, its role in ending the COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges involved.


Why is herd immunity important?​


Herd immunity occurs when a large portion of a community (the herd) becomes immune to a disease, making the spread of disease from person to person unlikely. As a result, the whole community becomes protected — not just those who are immune.

Often, a percentage of the population must be capable of getting a disease in order for it to spread. This is called a threshold proportion. If the proportion of the population that is immune to the disease is greater than this threshold, the spread of the disease will decline. This is known as the herd immunity threshold.


What percentage of a community needs to be immune in order to achieve herd immunity? It varies from disease to disease. The more contagious a disease is, the greater the proportion of the population that needs to be immune to the disease to stop its spread. For example, the measles is a highly contagious illness. It's estimated that 94% of the population must be immune to interrupt the chain of transmission.

How is herd immunity achieved?​


There are two main paths to herd immunity for COVID-19 — infection and vaccines.

Natural infection​

Herd immunity can be reached when enough people in the population have recovered from a disease and have developed protective antibodies against future infection.


However, there are some major problems with relying on community infection to create herd immunity to the virus that causes COVID-19:

  • Reinfection. It’s not clear how long you are protected from getting sick again after recovering from COVID-19. Even if you have antibodies, you could get COVID-19 again.
  • Health impact. Experts estimate that in the U.S., 70% of the population — more than 200 million people — would have to recover from COVID-19 to halt the pandemic. This number of infections could lead to serious complications and millions of deaths, especially among older people and those who have existing health conditions. The health care system could quickly become overwhelmed.

Vaccines​

Herd immunity also can be reached when enough people have been vaccinated against a disease and have developed protective antibodies against future infection. Unlike the natural infection method, vaccines create immunity without causing illness or resulting complications. Using the concept of herd immunity, vaccines have successfully controlled contagious diseases such as smallpox, polio, diphtheria, rubella and many others.

Herd immunity makes it possible to protect the population from a disease, including those who can't be vaccinated, such as newborns or those who have compromised immune systems.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved one COVID-19 vaccine and given emergency use authorization to a handful of COVID-19 vaccines.

But reaching herd immunity through vaccination against COVID-19 might be difficult for many reasons. For example:

  • Vaccine hesitancy. Some people may object to getting a COVID-19 vaccine because of religious objections, fears about the possible risks or skepticism about the benefits. If the proportion of vaccinated people in a community is below the herd immunity threshold, a contagious disease could continue to spread.
  • Protection questions. It’s not clear how long the COVID-19 vaccines will protect you from COVID-19. Further research is needed to see how much the COVID-19 vaccines reduce transmission of the COVID-19 virus. Also, research suggests that COVID-19 vaccines may have lower efficacy against some of the variants of the COVID-19 virus. New variants, which could be more resistant to vaccines, are regularly emerging.
  • Uneven vaccine roll-out. The distribution of COVID-19 vaccines has greatly varied among and within countries. If one community achieves a high COVID-19 vaccination rate and surrounding areas don’t, outbreaks can occur if the populations mix.

The explosion in the number of cases means that herd immunity has failed. No other way to spin it. :rolleyes:

In the meantime, do enjoy the herd mentality, the new normal, and the 'endemic' talk which is nothing more than a thinly disguised Stage 5: Acceptance. :cool:

All that money spent enriching Pfizer/Moderna and publishing tons of pro-vaccination ads? Flushed down the toilet. Congratulations! :thumbsup:

The uncertainty is in the number of severe cases in ICU and the mortality rate. If these 2 numbers shoot up in the following weeks that are not in congruence with current rate, then it is clear that mass vaccinations has not achieved its effectiveness and no sight of herd immunity attained so far.

Maybe the unvaccinated ones should stay at home and watch the increasing cases show.( get popcorn, bao, bee hoon, fried rice too) You can say i didn't go out, it is the vaccinated ones who are spreading the virus.

The PAP kanna conned by the cabal which is the WHO, Pharma companies, that vaccine can prevent virus. I say liao, only above average IQ people will never get the vaccine. Now the unvaccinated ones can sit on the fence, chilling out with nice healthy drink ( pine needle tea) and watch the whole shit show.

The unvaccinated ones are not part of the whole shit show, it is those vaccinated ones who loves to dine in and drink and enjoy. Good luck man, good luck listening to and follow whatever PAP tells you to. Hope this is a real lesson for you to wake the fuck up.

Bro,
It’s us the sheeple who pay the price when the shit hits the fan. Currently 18 in ICU and another 105 requiring oxygen supplementation. Certainly an increasing trend if you asked me, and the jury is still unsure which route we’ll head towards.
