EDITORIAL- Quarantine and connections

January 05, 2022

Now why would the woman who famously broke quarantine and went partying a day after arriving from the United States have the nerve to behave in that manner, despite stringent rules, if she weren’t sufficiently certain that she could get away with it? From accounts, she had no intention of skulking around incognito; she had no qualms about recording her caper even on TikTok, which was how she was found out by authorities.

EDITORIAL – Public endangerment

With new COVID cases surging yesterday to 10,775 – double the previous day’s 5,434 – few people quibbled with the filing of criminal charges against Gwyneth Anne Chua, the returning traveler from the US who broke hotel quarantine to party before finding out that she was positive for COVID.

EDITORYAL –Bawalang lumabas ang mga hindi bakunado

 Marami pa ang hindi bakunado. Ang ilan ayaw talagang magpabakuna. Kahit sinasabi ng pamahalaan na wala nang problema sa bakuna at maraming supply, hindi pa rin mapilit magpabakuna. Kaya nararapat nang higpitan ngayon ang galaw ng mga hindi bakunado sapagkat malaki ang posibilidad na sila ang nagtataglay ng virus na kumakalat ngayon. Sobrang bilis nang pagtaas ng kaso.

The Straits Times says

Celebrate, yes, but stay cautious too

The breaches of safe management rules by revellers who gathered on New Year’s Eve in Clarke Quay have illustrated just why the authorities have seen fit to regularly remind the public about the need for caution and vigilance as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to rage. If last year was dominated by the Delta variant, this year might well be that of the Omicron strain, which is far more infectious than its predecessor. Under these circumstances, it was foolish that hundreds were involved in a gathering, whether spontaneously or loosely organised, that the authorities have described as a potential superspreader event. Singapore has navigated the pandemic well and the situation has been stable.

While it is understandable that people want to mark special occasions, the gathering last Friday gave cause for worry especially as Omicron looms. The strain already accounts for 17 per cent of coronavirus cases here. The social psychology behind the event should be taken into account so that future incidents during festive periods can be better managed without the need for punitive intervention by the authorities. While people may have felt it was all right to celebrate an event that promised, metaphorically, to provide them with a break from the social restrictions that have become habitual over the past two years, they had to also realise that these are not normal times.

Enforce the plastic ban

 

Jan 1 was the first day the ban on four types of plastic waste came into effect, which was in line with the cabinet resolution made in February last year. The ban is just one move under a 20-year plan between 2018-2037 called the “Roadmap on Plastic Waste Management”.

Under the ban, plastic bags of less than 36 microns in thickness (widely known as single-use plastic bags); polystyrene-made food containers; plastic cups of less than 100 microns in thickness and plastic straws are supposed to be prohibited.
