6 Hua Zai workers who tested positive for Covid-19 were living together, working in 2 places

Wow 26 outlets for a roasted duck joint? The food must be very good, or the towkay is a crony. :biggrin:
 
While the graphics are impressive all this information is primarily redundant because with more than a year's worth of data we now know that Covid is of little consequence for the majority of those infected.

This has been proven in many jurisdictions across the world where opening up and removing all restrictions has not resulted in a spike in infections and deaths and in many cases has shown the exact opposite.

Here's an example...

Belize​


Nestled along the Caribbean shorelines, Belize is now a viable option for tourists seeking the unspoiled beauty of Central America. The country has done away with mandatory quarantine (except if you test positive in the random screening conducted at airports). Fully vaccinated passengers are exempt even from taking an RT-PCR test 96 hours before boarding.


All arriving residents and non-residents must download the Belize Health mobile application and fill in their details before travel. Visitors are required to stay at Gold Standard hotels. They are also advised to Tourism Safe Corridor comprised of Gold Standard certified restaurants, tour operators, tourism sites and attractions, and gift shops. There are no restrictions on movement though.

Mexico​


Mexico’s tourist-friendly policy has made its popularity as a travel destination grow multifold in recent times. The country welcomes travellers from all countries, with no mandatory testing or quarantine requirements. However, you’ll be subject to health screening on arrival and those exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 may be asked to test/quarantine. All passengers have to fill an online “Cuestionario de Identificacion de Factores de Riesgo en Viajeros” form and present it on arrival.


As of 25 May, no state is in the red zone. Although Cancun and Tulum are in the orange zone, most other destinations are in the green zone, which means the tourism sector will be functioning as usual.


Please note that the land borders between Mexico and the US, Belize and Guatemala are still closed. Entry is possible by air only.

did you practice self-quarantine?
 
no I only go to parks and walks at late nights. I don't eat out. The only time when people are near me is on a 1 minute bus ride down 2 bus stop. Most likely I caught the virus on the public bus with low class malaysian jiuhu cooks, old indian cleaners and pinay nurses. Fuck the covid scam.
 
U look at sick and pale Pinky , u know covid-19 is out of control.

Didn't he say he wanted to stay on as PM to see out this pandemic? Now that they've admitted that it's endemic, Loong will cling on to power for as long as he can... and try to break his daddy's record. Though I think he will die soon. :cool:

This caused DPM Heng to complain that his runway was too short and he decided to forgo the chance to be PM. :frown:
 
did you practice self-quarantine?
No never. In fact I went to buy things in a mall. I was running a high fever. So I took a panadol, waited for about 10 mins, once started sweating then go thru temperature check, pass 36.9. Haha..Pappy fuckers damn stupid .

COVID-19 is the Number One Cause of Death in the U.S. in Early 2021​

In 2020, COVID-19 became the third leading cause of death in the United States, exceeded only by cancer and heart disease. However, that ranking includes months in early 2020 when the pandemic had not fully taken hold in the U.S. The death toll from COVID-19 has risen sharply, particularly since the November and December holidays.

Looking at the most recent data on deaths from COVID-19 and other causes, it becomes clear that COVID-19 is currently the number one cause of death in the United States. As of February 20, 2021, an average of more than 2,400 people per day died of COVID-19 in the U.S. during February 2021. That number is staggering compared to other leading causes of death and is nearly 20% higher than the next leading cause. Heart disease, which is typically the number one cause of death in the U.S. each year, leads to the death of about 2,000 Americans per day, and cancer claims about 1,600 American lives per day. The cumulative count of deaths attributed to COVID-19 in the U.S. is 497,648 through February 20, 2021, and is expected to exceed 500,000 in the next few days.

The chart above combines data on COVID-19 mortality rates from KFF’s tracker with data from Center for Disease Control (CDC) on weekly counts of death by jurisdiction and cause of death. COVID-19 deaths in the chart represent the average daily deaths thus far in February 2021 (as of February 20, 2021). Deaths from other causes represent the weighted daily mortality rate averaged over MMWR weeks 1-52 during the year 2020. This CDC dataset does not include deaths due to accidents (which, before the pandemic, were typically the third leading cause of death, after heart disease and cancer), nor does it include suicides (which were typically the tenth leading cause of death before the pandemic). To avoid double-counting, the dataset excludes deaths confirmed to have an underlying cause of COVID-19. The chart could, however, understate the severity of COVID-19 because some of those deaths may have been misclassified as other causes. There were many more deaths in 2020 than expected, and confirmed COVID-19 cases only accounted for about two in three excess deaths.

The current wave of COVID-19 has been described as more of a tsunami. The 3,076 COVID-19 deaths per day in January 2021 represent a 29% increase over December. December 2020 may have been the first month in which the COVID-19 mortality rate exceeded that of heart disease, though the margin is narrow and that data may still be preliminary due to reporting delays. In January 2021, the number of deaths from COVID-19 increased so rapidly that it has clearly become the number one cause of death in the U.S. These data are just one more way of illustrating the urgency of expediting COVID-19 vaccination. President Biden has developed a plan to increase vaccine supply, including through use of the Defense Production Act and by purchasing additional doses. In the meantime, other public health measures are crucial to reduce transmission. The number of new COVID-19 cases appears to have taken a turn for the better in the latter half of January, which could lead to declines in the number of new deaths several weeks from now. However, it is difficult to know what the future holds, particularly with the potential spread of new variants.

Mexico's COVID death toll jumps after review​

Mexico's health ministry increased the country's total COVID-19 pandemic death toll by 4,272 to 227,840.
Driving the news: Jose Luis Alomia, the ministry's head of epidemiology, told reporters the revision was due to previously suspected cases being confirmed, per Reuters. "We will likely be seeing these adjustments not only in deaths but also in cases," Alomia warned.
  • He stressed that the deaths were "not part of the recent epidemic activity."
The big picture: Mexico has one of the world's highest coronavirus death rates.
  • A lack of testing availability means "many Mexicans have died at home or never got a test," AP notes. "So the government searches death certificates for mentions of symptoms related to COVID-19."
  • The ministry's announcement comes one day after Peru officials raised the country's COVID-19 death toll to 180,764 after a review, giving the country the worst pandemic death rate per capita.
