Serious "We are not returning to a pre-Covid-19 World" - Minister Chan

This CCS is a nut. Definitely, things will go back to normal once a vaccine (and possibly also a cure) is found. I anticipate the former to be available by October/November 2020, although in a rush manner and the fucking WHO will claim that it's not proven nor certified, just like what they had said about Russia's Covid-19 vaccine now.


have to take kc seriously. he is a prophet of sort. remember his famous " slip" - " Mdm President ..." :D
 


SINGAPORE: “We are not returning to a pre-COVID-19 world … We must chart a new direction now,” said Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing on Tuesday (Aug 11), after Singapore announced what he described as its “worst quarterly performance on record”.

Data showed that the Singapore economy had contracted by 13.2 per cent on a year-on-year basis in the April to June quarter, worse than the 12.6 per cent decline seen in the Government’s advance estimate and a sharp deterioration from the 0.3 per cent contraction in the previous quarter.


“To put things in context, this is our worst quarterly performance on record. The forecast for 2020 essentially means the growth generated over the past two to three years will be negated.

“The numbers reflect the impact of COVID-19, as well as deeper forces reshaping the global economy and our position in the global value chains,” said Mr Chan in a press conference.


Great.

The greater the suffering for stinky kuffar, the better.
 
Very unlikely because 80% of the population is already immune from prior coronavirus infections so we are left with 20% that are susceptible.

Mask wearing has not been proven to make any difference it is largely symbolic. That is why country's like Sweden and Netherlands that followed the science have not mandated mask wearing. Ref : https://www.dutchnews.nl/news/2020/07/dutch-stand-firm-no-nationwide-requirement-to-wear-face-masks/

The purpose of lockdowns and social distancing won't make any difference to the overall death toll either. All these measures do is spread infections out over a longer period so that ERs are not overloaded. The end result will still be the same number of deaths overall from Covid-19.

Based on the Swedish data The infection mortality rate is about 0.2% overall and for those below 60 it is around 0,06% which puts it in the same ball park as influenza.

I would like to believe you but reality is what matters for rationalization. Look at US today, if Trump has done his job to contain the coronavirus spread, there won't be any resurgence of the virus infection in most of the states and the death toll will be contained. But it is not to be because of his wrong rationalization. Today, US has the highest number of infection cases ( >5 millions) and a death toll of more than 160,000. Contrast the data with China which has more people than the US, the infection cases reported there are 84,700 and deaths at only 4,634.
 
Not will be.

Has already been drastically reduced.

But this is current covid situation.

Eventually there will come a time where there is enough herd immunity and no more worry about covid.

And the world will go back to pre-covid 19 days. it is a matter of time.

This is where you see the value of being a big ship eg oil tanker or aircraft carrier. Weather the long storm.

Meanwhile the proud arrogant hip state of the art techno savvy small yacht that says it can maneuver itself in the open sea is finding it hard because this is a LONG AND BIG STORM.

good luck trying to maneuver this one. You just have to sit out the storm. Hope you survive Yacht.
This Yacht should survive, provided all the reserves are still there.

The Yacht is getting battered. Meanwhile the reserves are being used.

Trouble with the Yacht is once you run low on the reserves you are DEAD! And it's not like it has vast amounts of reserves (in fact for this Yacht you have no idea how much reserves at all).

Unlike aircraft carrier it is nuclear powered!

Dear Hum Kar Chan, please tell us something we don't know.
 
Post covid means what? No mrt, no buses, everyone take their own vehicles, no sharing, no eating in restaurant in groups, no see nee mah, ......snd no travel overseas.
Very brilliant assessment.
