The estimated number of Covid-19 cases in the week of May 5 to 11 rose to 25,900 cases, compared with 13,700 cases in the previous week.SINGAPORE - Covid-19 antigen rapid test kits flew off the shelves at many pharmacies over the weekend after news broke that Singapore is facing a new wave.
"Our stores are well-stocked, and we have scheduled replenishments. We continuously seek collaborations with partners to promptly address any further increases in demand." Mr Senthil, who works in the information technology industry, told The Straits Times he underwent a heart transplant more than 10 years ago and is on immunosuppressant drugs and has low immunity.
"The problem is that people treat Covid-19 too lightly and do not go for annual Covid-19 jabs like they would for other things such as flu jabs," Mr Lim said, adding that they had Covid-19 once and the symptoms were quite mild, "only slightly worse than the flu". Health Minister Ong Ye Kung on May 18 urged people at greatest risk of severe illness, including those aged 60 and above, to receive another dose of the Covid-19 vaccine if they have not done so in the last 12 months.
He said: "I try to keep away from crowded places, and I already seldom go to such places anyway. I'm still considered quite healthy."
