Shangri-La Dialogue 'remains on track' for in-person event in early June: Organiser

Quote

The statement from the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) comes after the World Economic Forum's Special Annual Meeting in Singapore was cancelled, about three months before it was scheduled to take place in August.

In a statement, the IISS said: “The World Economic Forum’s decision does not affect our plans. We have a full line-up of ministers and other senior leaders from around the world planning to attend our event.

On IISS’s intention to move forward with the Shangri-La Dialogue, Singapore's Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) said on Monday that it was “encouraged” by the positive response to invitations to the dialogue.

This “underscores the strong commitment of government leaders in addressing security challenges even in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic”, said the ministry in reply to media queries.

“Nevertheless, as the COVID-19 situation is fluid and continues to evolve in the run-up to the meeting, the Singapore Government will continue to monitor the local and global COVID-19 situation and make the necessary adjustments. In doing so, the health and safety of everyone will be the foremost consideration.”

Everyone in the dialogue only hor.

Citizens, people working at the dialogue doesn’t matter.

You also have to take the numbers divide out by country sqm to get a sense of the potential risk to the uninfected. Not an accurate predictor but still a sensing

having 1 lakh spread over in remote country side is not the same as having 100 in a population center 

and because of Singapore island and city geography, having even a small number can be very devastating

something like this

Above is the first article I can find that talk about effectiveness of current vaccines against the Indian variant. Why nobody post this kind of facts? Not in their interests to allay fear? It is much more infectious but this is not saying it is so deadly. Common sense has it that if it is so deadly, our medical facilities would have already been overwhelmed since it surfaced late last year and there are ample time for it to work its magic. We definitely have to be vigilant and live responsibly whatever we believe. Facts speak for itself though - ICU still stay at 3 beds as of now. No amount of BS and statistics can erase this fact.

I think the main thing about the indian variant is it affects young people much more. I hear that from my indian colleague like weeks ago. it is also showing similar effects locally.

Perhaps been more infectious, it is able to affect young people, unlike the first variants where it affects predominantly older folks, thus seems to look that way. Common flu all along infect young and old regardless of age. But now that the older people have been vaccinated except some with medical reasons and a few with metal teeth, the tide is turning against the younger people. That is another good example of never say never, and never assume that things will stay certain way forever.

Last year the older folks are fearing for their lives, now is the younger people's turn. How ironic. But lucky for younger people, we have vaccines ready now.

vaccine efficacy is subject to individual,  some might last a long time,  some might last a few months ONLY.
