Hypothesis - the virus reduce in severity over time

I want to make an observation and to put up a hypothesis.

When the covid virus first appeared in Wuhan, China, it was lethal. Many people died. It affected mostly the elderly people, but many young people also succumb to the virus.

It move to Italy and cause large fatalities. It then spread to other cities in Europe and America, with devastating results.

A few months later, the virus became less lethal. The death rate came down.

When happened? Here is my hypothesis. I suspect that the virus becomes less harmful over time.

How to handle people who choose to remain unvaccinated

 The government has spent a lot of effort in getting people to be vaccinated against covid-19.

However, some people chose to be unvaccinated for various reasons. Most of these cases are people who believe that the vaccine is more harmful than good.

What can the government do?

Here is my answer:

Why are some people not infected by a close contact?

We pay a lot of attention to the transmission of the virus from an infected person to another person.

However, we are not paying attention to the non-transmission of the virus.

What do I mean?

If an infected person transmit the virus to another person in the same household, why are the other persons in the same household, who have the same exposure, not infected?

If we pay attention to the uninfected people, who have similar exposures, we may learn something about the resistance to the transmission.

Perhaps, a study can be carried out on the people in these households.

Ministers should provide clear leadership and listen to the people

I had a Zoom meeting with a Singaporean friend, X, who has lived overseas for several years. He followed the politics in Singapore closely through the internet.

X made the following remarks:

1. The 4G leaders are not giving a clear message to the people on their handling of the pandemic.

2. The 4G leaders are not listening to the views of the general

public.

I gave my views.

Use logic, reasoning and statistical knowledge

 Someone asked me if I watched videos of doctors who hold alternative opinions, e.g. about the risk of vaccination.

I do.

I watched many alternative videos (but not all of them).

I use my logic, reasoning and knowledge of statistics to know what is reliable and what is not.

Some of these doctors with alternative views talk about the possibility that the virus can cause certain kinds of side effects.

My common sense tells me that we should differentiate between the rare case and the majority of cases. We should use what is statistically significant to make decisions, i.e. cannot decide on the rare cases.

Some of these doctors want to build up a channel of followers. They exaggerate the rare cases and hope that many people (I shall not call them idiots) follow them.

I decide what is relevant and what is not. I share the videos and views that I find to be reliable and useful. They are meant for people who trust that I know how to use logic, reasoning and common sense.

People who think that they are smarter than me are not required to agree with me. But I do not wish to spend (waste) my time to debate with them.

Provide email and telephone number of ACRA entities

I wanted to search for the email and telephone of a company called KingRex Solutions Pte Ltd.

I found several websites that take information from ACRA.

For example

https://www.sgpbusiness.com/company/Kingrex-Solution-Pte-Ltd

They show a lot of information but not the email address and telephone number.

Surely, in the modern era, the email address and telephone number provided by the registered ACRA entity is more important than the physical address?

I suggest that this information be provided by ACRA.
