Dealing with a non-existent risk

 The daily cases and deaths world wide from covid-19 have increased during the past weeks.

So, it is a concern in the countries, especially those with cold climates.

I can understand their concern, when the numbers are spiking up.

But the situation is different in Singapore.

But there has been no local infection for the past two weeks. They are a small handful of imported cases, but mostly mild). They do not spread anyway.

It the risk becomes real, we can then take the required measures and pay for their cost. There is no need to pre-empt and over-react to this potential risk.

It is insane for us to take expensive precautions against a risk that is somewhat non-existent in Singapore.

Anyway, we can continue our insanity and see more people lose their jobs, livelihood and close their business.
