Jaarfuckingvis Shout out to all my essential peeps!!

This is as good as lockdown which will further aggravate the businesses and the economy. U should have stopped those people from overseas from returning to SG which could have the virus and causing the infection cases to increase. Not doing a good job!

Yeah, double digits confirmed daily.. how about those silent ones... we need a lockdown.. just do it...

Thank you PM 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

Still not using the L word. So NO lockdown, NO code Red, No GE! But this is good progress. Like most of the experts who said the obvious: situation will get worst before it will get better.

No point panic buying and being selfish when the same kind of people refuse to wear masks and use hand sanitizers. Everyday we witness people just walking in and out of stores and touching everything on display then leaving the store without santizing their hands.

Takes death of 86 yr old with NO travel history n devt of Thomson old age home b4 SG govt is 'woke' to fact that maybe infected but asymptomatic visitors r bringing virus to the vulnerable's doorstep. Perhaps we r indecisive on strict social distancing to stamp out local spread?

All he wants is for us to stay at home and do nothing. But it's so hard to do.

I prepare for a potensial lockdown, could it be?

They need to put brakes on. Inexperience and indecision. Hindsight will show they had a golden window to extend school holidays and cancel all trips overseas in March. That will cause a lot of pain now

But...cases increasing in double digits everyday...doesn't quite seem under control yet.

Lockdown?

Wow..over 1K cases n it's under control?🙏🙏
