Coronavirus 2019-2020 thread (no unsubstantiated rumours!)

[pandamonium]

I don't know who are the rabid posters on Reddit, but everybody I know or come across, supports China and their coronavirus policies, and grateful for their tremendous contributions to Covid-19 medical supplies.
If not for Chinese Sinovac, I would have to vaccinate with mRNA Pfizer, and risk getting myocarditis and unknown long term side effects.
Chinese tourists, world renowned for their generous spending are welcomed, our tourist industry needs them.
Our government had already sacrificed our old and weak to prepare for our opened borders, which is necessary for the survival of our trading hub economy.
So Omicron is no problem for those who survived the earlier Covid waves.

Curb the DEADLY DELTA Covid variant creators and carriers.

got people like this I'm starting to see why @NiuBiDaRen hates this island so much.

are you sure you are talking with actual Singaporeans? all the guys i met are cursing the draconian lockdown policy, praising A4 revolution, and wanting a genocide of mainland Chinese to save Singapore from "another round of lockdowns".

Go settle your border issues with China elsewhere.

Don't expect Singaporeans who are majority ethnic Chinese to wish genocide upon the land of their ancestors, whether they agree with their politics or otherwise.

You are not Singaporean since you do not know about the Indian/Malay man who pose as a Chinese lady to foment racial hatred as it was a major and sensitive racial issue.
Somebody with the report button, REPORT THIS GUY for flaming and trolling.

Do you think I am trolling? have you seen what the youths think about china? and you dare to accuse me of not being Singaporean? i was born and raised in Singapore my family was here ever since Singapore became independent

whatever, you clearly are out of touch with how the majority of young Singaporeans feel. your analysis of how Singaporeans view their ancestral homeland is too optimistic. all I have said is based on my own personal observations. yes, the older generation is mostly pro china but that is not the same for the younger ones. the youth in Singapore want nothing to do with china and their opinions are less than positive.

look, dude, I really wish the current generation of Singaporeans would view china like how you describe but the truth is that they don't. call me whatever you want but this does not change anything. go look at Singapore cyberspace when it comes to topics regarding china and you can see why I am so skeptical of your claims. even people who I know IRL have less than favorable views of china, thinking social credit systems exist and other nonsense.

and how do you know that those on r/singapore are all outsiders? are you trying to say that all those who bad-mouth china are foreigners and not Singaporeans?

if you think my previous post was trolling I apologize, but you can see that not everyone in Singapore thinks so highly of china as you claim.

Remarkable change of behavior. YouTuber Dr. John Campbell went from heavy on the blue pill to completely rogue.

 

[pandamonium]

@badoc if you think my behavior was unacceptable just now I apologize, I'm just fed up with the recent news and people going "oh those PRCs are gonna come here and take their virus and infect all of us" I had no intention of trolling.

The eternal Hindu strikes again lol!

But honestly Singapore is such a mixed cesspool of non integrated people that it hardly has an unified voice in anything. And it is well known an extreme amount of Indian lurks among Singapore haha.

I don't think demanding a negative covid test for entry shows a nazist character for any nation... If they were doing blanket bans on anyone from China then they can to hell and meet Bandera. But just asking for a negative test is normal routine.

Most major cities have peaked and in a few weeks, it would be rare to find people with positive tests in China anymore.

italy has always erred on the side of caution when it comes to the covid pandemic, although that was a different government.
the new one is gradually loosening the remaining restrictions.
in theory, trying to prevent covid19 infected people from entering the country is not bad policy per se. the thing that the health authorities are focusing on when explaining the ban is that they fear new variants. a new strain could come in and be more aggressive/virulent, infections might go up, hospitalizations as well, yada yada yada
the thing that I find contradictory is that inside the country everyone is going around like before the pandemic, so a new variant could be brewing here as well.
let's put this way: I can understand the scientific concern of the health authorities, but I think that the decision was motivated by political considerations as well

It's useless to test only travelers from China, which has only the Omicron variants as claimed by its health authorities, which has been proven true by the results of the Italian testing.

If these countries really want to test the inbound, they should do it for every country, especially those known to have a variety of Covid variants.

The problem with that theory is that there were a decent amount of variants that popped up after June 1st, in which Italy got rid of the Green Pass system. Yet the Italian government didn’t go rabidly testing every person coming into their country. If they were really concerned about variants, they should have tested every single person coming into their country via flight or railway. Given the nature of the current governing party in Italy, this is not a scientific decision that was influenced by politics. This is a political decision, and politicians are trying to use science to justify it.

Why waste the time for testing inbound when most of these countries probably have 10 to 100 times more cases than reported. It is political and an attempt to embarrass China. And a few countries just do it for publicity to earn some brownie points either from the West or its constituencies.

Although I don't care or mind such restrictions. It is a fair game. It is just mainland Chinese need to boycott these countries. However, I am doubtful as those who rushed to travel are mostly Western or Japan worshipers.

 

[MortyandRick]

Yeah it's 100% political.

US stopped testing for covid and their hospitals right now are full, especially the childrens hospitals during October and November and even now.

They didn't report child covid infection rates, they were not being transparent. Why didn't countries test US travellers?

It's the same countries that use the same phrasing and policies makes it seem like more counties are coming on board but in the end it's the same countries, US, japan South Korea, Canada, UK, Australia, and EU. It's their plan to blow this up and blame china for infecting" the world again. China should really put them blame back to them for not stopping covid well enough and now china is being infected by their variant.

India sometimes just due to their hostility to china but they also included south Korea Thailand and japan. They seem to be prejudiced against all east Asians lol. Malaysia is doing a half assed effort IMO, they can say they made restrictions but it's not really significant.

Lets see what other ASEAN countries and ME and Latin America countries do.
