I don't know who is doing the contact tracing, but they are not doing a very good job. Not detecting deception.

Generally trending downwards. Good.
Currently at 41,833 cases as of 12pm on 20 Jun 2020, it is safe to say we’ll hit close to 42.5K by 23 Jun 2020.
5 months since the reporting of the first case. 26 official deaths and 10 unofficial ones, our gold standards in healthcare is maintained!

Still a downward trend, are we out of the woods?

Latest figures are 26+12 deaths. 
The 12th case is dubious to say the least. Can PAP please explain what are the circumstances that led to his fall.
This is the report from MOH for 27 June 2020:
"Case 38238, a 27 year-old male Bangladeshi national, has passed away on 25 June 2020. He was confirmed to have COVID-19 infection on 6 June. The cause of death was multiple injuries consistent with those resulting from a fall from height.
Only cases where the attending doctor or pathologist attributes the primary or underlying cause of death as due to COVID-19 infection will be added to the COVID-19 death count. This is consistent with international practice for classifying deaths."

Still trending at about 1K cases a week, community cases and untraceable cases also creeping up, and the number of cases trending downwards too... Teehee...

They could be reducing the testing on dorm workers before polling day. The community cases are trending up. Today's 23 is the highest since end April.

Ontario received 100,000 contaminated, unusable swabs for COVID-19 tests
A shipment of more than 100,000 testing swabs arrived in Ontario contaminated and unusable, the Star has learned, illustrating how even as the province strives to expand its COVID-19 lab-testing capacity it is still contending with global supply-chain havoc wrought by the pandemic.
The shipment of much-needed swabs, a critical component of the testing, was the first instalment of a big order procured by the federal government, with hundreds of thousands of more from the contaminated batch on the way. The contamination is believed to be mould.
Without the federal order, the province currently has about 200,000 swabs on hand, enough for seven to 10 days’ worth of tests, according to provincial officials. Multiple agencies and departments are actively working on acquiring more.
Ontario rolled out a plan to scale up COVID-19 testing Friday, from current levels of about 4,000 daily — a testing rate Premier Doug Ford slammed as “unacceptable” earlier this week — to over 16,000 by the first week of May, including protocols for who will be prioritized with the expanded capacity.
Ford promised a “vast and robust testing regime” for COVID-19 at a press conference Friday.
“Earlier this week, I told you that we would do better when it comes to testing,” Ford said, adding that everyone who needs a test should get it.
“The first step to winning any battle is knowing your enemy.”
Testing for COVID-19 relies on a specific type of “nasopharyngeal” medical swab that captures cells harbouring the virus in the nose or throat. Before shipments of swabs are deployed to assessment centres, they have to be validated by Public Health Ontario’s laboratory.
Because every jurisdiction battling the pandemic is relying on the same type of swabs to run testing programs, supply chains have jammed in the same way that they have been for medical masks and other personal protective equipment (PPE).
Ontario’s goal of testing 16,000 patients for COVID-19 daily assumes a continued ability to acquire swabs, as well as PPE and reagents, the substances used to extract viral genetic material before it is loaded into testing machines. A shortage of reagents was one factor that contributed to the backlog of tens of thousands of tests in recent weeks, which has since been cleared.
Ontario is not alone in battling swab supply chain challenges. Some U.S. states have reported shortages, and the former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Scott Gottlieb, tweeted in March that “swabs could be a weak link in broadening testing.”
Gottlieb noted that medical products like swabs that have low profit margins are often the weakest link in supply chains. Because they don’t attract investment capital, production is consolidated in the hands of just a few suppliers.
The Star couldn’t confirm the manufacturer of the contaminated swabs, but supply chain challenges generally during the pandemic have meant that governments are turning to new, and potentially unreliable, manufacturers to meet their ballooning needs.
Provincial officials said that Ontario is working with partners here and federally to obtain more swabs, and along with other critical supplies is making an effort to manufacture these products locally, including looking at 3D printing.

This is HUGE!!!! The spot where they are "getting a sample" for the Covid-19 test is called your Blood-Brain Barrier. It is a single layer of cells that protect your brain from heavy metals, pesticides & other toxic substances that are usually kept out. It is the way vital nutrients, like oxygen, reach the brain.
If, in some way, your Blood-Brain Barrier is compromised, it becomes a "Leaky Blood-Brain Barrier" which is an inflamed brain! It then allows bacteria & other toxins to enter your brain & infect the brain tissue which can lead to inflammation and sometimes death.
****More symptoms (long & short term) include autism, ADD, ADHD, heart disease, autoimmune disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, stroke, liver damage, chronic fatigue that isn't resolved with rest, hypoxia, anxiety, mood disorders, depression & other mental health conditions like schizophrenia, seizures, memory loss & cognitive decline resulting in Alzheimer's or Dementia, insufficient blood flow to the brain, abnormal brain activity!
Now, take this and add on a contaminated test and see what you get!
Edit from Samuel:
the olfactory receptors have a mucus membrane that protect the nerurons from any toxins that aren’t dissolvable in water. It’s a defence system inhibiting any poisons that you might smell from the air in traffic for instance. This might be a way for the evil agenda folks to bypass this protective layer called the olfactory epithileum and actually increase the risk of sickness.
Heard that they have drawn a bell curve and cases will be reduced gradually. Was told that if u don't do testing,then there are no cases to report. So far,they have tested only 10% of the dormitory foreign workers. What about the balance 90% of foreign workers ? Nobody ask ? As if the problem is swept under the carpet.
We are now still in CB (Lockdown) Code RED but they refused to tell us the truth. WE should not be conducting GE at this covid-19 crisis. The health and lives of the people is the utmost importance.Their greed and obsession for power and money overrides our health and safety.
This 10-7-2020 GE will be remembered as one of the most undemocratic and immoral GE in Singapore .

The virus will not killed don't worry. Nature deemed that the virus will become less and less virulent, the more it divide and reproduce. This virus is engineered but nature still wins. However, the PAP do not know that and they will still held an election while thinking the virus is virulent. This is a major red flag of PAP and they should be voted out.
