It’s nice to know
someone's looking ahead. Every time I’ve gotten involved in these things it’s been a panicky game of catch-up. Incredibly stupid.
On the good news front and in line with a proactive approach, Singapore looks Ike they may have beaten this back, at least for now. Community spread is fading and they’re barely keeping up with contact tracing, but barely is good enough.
Do you follow Prime Minister Lee? Amazing guy with amazing cooperation among the Singaporeans. He credits everything to the people—and good luck.
He never takes credit but he’s personally met with taxi drivers, HCWs, hospitality workers, finance groups...and he leaves behind
actionable policy directives and a sense of optimism.
Taxi drivers know how to asses symptoms in their fares, exactly where to bring someone w symptoms, how to warn the hospital ER teams they’re coming, how to protect themselves and decontaminate their taxis...Same same with hotel workers, office workers, etc. Damn impressive.
Japan on the other hand is teetering. Fingers crossed.
