cases are immaterial if the recovered patients from covid could not live normally. That's the main worry !

Old People vaccinated are dying at hospital

If Singapore reaches 5,000 cases daily, that would mean hospitals will need to take in 500 people who will need stays of at least a week, said Minister Lawrence Wong, co-chair of the ministerial task force on Covid-19.
