Don't let anti-virus efforts go to waste during celebrations
The Chinese in Singapore are all set to celebrate the upcoming Chinese New Year, while others are looking forward to a long weekend. Concerned that too much mingling could lead to Covid-19 clusters forming and spreading rapidly, the Government has put new rules in place to minimise this. For example, households can have no more than eight visitors a day. Not everyone is willing to fall in line. My mother, who is Chinese and 97 years old, has been busy planning ways to circumvent these measures. On the other hand, I have been busy trying to ensure that her plans don't pan out.
