Why Is The Moo Government Still Telling People That They Should Only Wear A Face Mask If They Are Having Flu-Like Symptoms?


The government is telling people only those who have flu-like symptoms should wear a mask.

Why are we still persiting on telling people they need not wear a face mask unless they have flu-like symptoms?


Are we saying that Covid 19 asymptomatic people cannot spread the virus to others? Is that the new scientific fact?

If not, why is it only necessary to wear a face mask for those having flu-like symptoms?

You wear a face mask not only to protect yourself but also not to spread the virus to others.

Since the scientific understanding is that a person who suffers from Covid 19 may not have nor exhibit any symptoms yet he can still spread the virus to others, does it make sense for the government to tell the people that they do not need to wear a face mask unless they have flu-like symptoms?

In the current situation of the Covid 19 pandemic, we should all wear a face mask whether or not you exhibit any flu-like sysmptoms whenever we go out.

What the government should do is to ensure that there are enough face masks for the people.

Take a leave from the Chinese experience. Everyone is still wearing a face mask even though the China lockdown has ended.

Better be safe than sorry.

Kluang was a sleepy hollow, but is fast becoming a bustling town. You can't miss the bust-shaped gunung Lambak lording over the place and the town is well known for its tv brand coffee powder

Kluang RailCoffee
The Kluang railway station coffee shop, now re-branded Kluang RailCoffee, is well known for its cuppa of coffee and the charcaol grilled piping hot buns oozing with butter and kaya...It used to attract standing-room only crowds. It still does, but the last time I was there it wasn't a good experience for me. The famous coffee had somewhat lost its oomph and even the buns...The shop has a long and noted history being first opened for business in 1938 and the place is now run by the 3rd generation LIm family. I hope the next time I return, the coffee would regain its oomph. Click to read more...
