Well, I myself have not worn a rubber glove even once in my life

but still the global demand for rubber gloves in 2021 is 500 billion pcs, while current global supply is only 420 billion pcs

it's mostly about the frontliners

global glove demand does not need everybody wearing a glove, guys

comprende?

safety health precautions & preventive measures among frontliners still remain, including wearing appropriate ppe in many situations

irregardless of whether their patient is fully vaccinated or not, taking pill or not, young or old, female or male, etc.

gloves are very often important part of appropriate ppe

That's right. All that political bullkrapping about accepting living with covid as an endemic is essentially an admission of failure on their own part by some spineless jelly hearted politicians.

Why we must not allow COVID to become endemic in New Zealand

As New Zealand switches from elimination to suppression, those who argue that COVID-19 will become endemic and part of our lives either do not understand or ignore what this would actually mean.

Elimination has always been a tricky word because it implies eradication. But we have only ever eradicated one human disease — smallpox — and are close with several others.

For some, the end of elimination now means we should let the virus spread. But semantics matter less than policy. If we don’t eliminate, we must still aim to contain, mop up, reduce close to zero and thwart this pandemic.

Because we certainly cannot live with endemic SARS-CoV-2

So, better not be lulled into blissful happy delirium so soon about current drop in daily covid cases yet

It might be sustainable, but then again also, it might not

Malaysians are not a uniquely invincible species, so what makes anybody think for even one moment that our experience post-opening up is gonna be any different from those of US, UK, israel, singapore

A daily covid infection rate of 7,000 for a population of only 32 million is not an indicator of competent covid management at all

It is merely a reflection of a previous much worse level of incompetence now only temporarily mitigated

While we are now already seeing the earliest daily covid infection rate surges in langkawi due to rapid opening up of travel & tourism sector

The upside to high vaxxing rate is that it tends to produce a quick lowering effect on daily infection rate

The downside being, when guys see a quick reduction in daily infection rate, they also get overconfident & overexuberant fast, often too fast for their own good

So, whether sustainable or not sustainable in longer term, would greatly depend on discipline of both the govt & the rakyat

Yep, just as has already been proven in US, UK, Israel, Singapore etc.

So, just going by the actual post-high vaxxing experiences in US, UK, Israel, Singapore etc., it still remains to be seen yet, how things gonna really play out in Malaysia in the weeks & months to come

singapore daily cases could still possibly shoot up to 5 digits, if their govt & rakyat still too stubborn & adamant about relentlessly opening up & loosening up without sufficient restrictions & precautionary preventive measures

Well, if it's just up to me alone, I would rather the nurse or female doctor be touching me without gloves when she is examining me.

But she's not gonna have any of that.

No frekkin way, man

Well, I myself have not worn a rubber glove even once in my life
