    I donated blood today for the first time in a long while.

    There was a list of questions part of the screening process.

    Some of the questions were
    1. Have ever been diagnosed with HIV?
    2. Have you used intravenous drugs?
    3. Have you visited certain countries within the last five years.

    Etc etc

    There was a total of 50 questions.

    The last question was: have you ever received a coronavirus vaccine?
    I answered no, of course.

    When the attendant came back to check the list of answers, she asked, "Just to confirm, you have not received any coronavirus vaccine? Because some folks forget"

    Interesting? Interesting, indeed!

    Air New Zealand introduces '''no jab, no fly''' policy for international travellers | Stuff.co.nz

    Air New Zealand is introducing a “no jab, not fly” policy for international travellers.

    “Being vaccinated against Covid-19 is the new reality of international travel – many of the destinations Kiwis want to visit are already closed to unvaccinated visitors,” Air NZ chief executive Greg Foran said.

    ”The quicker we get vaccinated, the sooner we can fly Kiwis to places like New York, Vancouver and Narita.”

    The policy change will come into effect on February 1, from when any traveller aged 18 or over on the international network would have to be fully-vaccinated.

    Unvaccinated travellers would need to provide proof they couldn’t be vaccinated for medical reasons, he said.

    When asked how this policy may impede unvaccinated citizens legal rights to return to New Zealand, a spokeswoman said over the next few months the company would be working through how the policy rolls out operationally.

    madami parin nagkaka covid

    madami di nagpapatest

    everyone knows someone na nagkacovid

    di lang mga malayong kakilala

    close friends, relatives

    hear many people say "hitting closer to home" or "palapit nang palapit"

    When too much testing is not good... Granular lockdown is the way...in 82% vaccination rate w/ mRNA Singapore.


    Singapore’s coronavirus cases could reach 10,000 a day in next two weeks | South China Morning Post

    To forestall the current surge, a fresh set of restrictions including a two-person limit on dining came into effect on Monday, while companies have been asked to allow employees to work from home where possible.

    On Thursday, elderly citizens – even those vaccinated – were advised to stay at home and only head out for essential activities for the next four weeks.

    That advisory came amid a sharp rise in the Covid-19 death toll among senior citizens. The total number of deaths from coronavirus now stands at 95, with 40 of those in September.

    The current state of affairs has triggered public criticism of government policy from within the medical community, which has by and large backed officials since the pandemic began.

    Doctors privately said they were airing dissenting views in public amid mounting frustration over whether the government’s multi-ministry Covid-19 task force (MTF) had the wherewithal to follow through with the so-called “living with Covid” plan.

    Some used the hashtag #stopasymptomatictesting on social media posts.

    Singaporeans have been left confused and frustrated, it said. The “reactive nature” of the taskforce’s approach in dealing with outbreaks of infections “has led to stop-start, on-again-off-again policies which had impacted adversely on both employers and employees”.

    The party’s chairman, Paul Tambyah, who is president of the Asia Pacific Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infection, was part of a panel who proposed an eight-point plan to deal with the pandemic.

    It suggested stopping the testing of asymptomatic vaccinated individuals to conserve resources for the vulnerable, and urged the authorities to do away with blanket closures and restrictions.

    Instead, measures should be more targeted, such as those implemented for food poisoning outbreaks. “Shut the physical building or facility where an outbreak occurs instead of across the whole island where outbreaks have not occurred,” it said.

    Cook said aggressive testing made sense in the earlier phases of the pandemic, when the country was trying to stop infection clusters from growing. “At this point, however, it could be argued that we are testing too much,” he said.

    Mass routine testing, if it leads to mild cases self-isolating, would be an effective way to tamp down on the virus spread. But if it leads to a flood of people turning up at the emergency departments of hospitals, it may do more harm than good, suggested Cook

    For such a small country, that is very high

    the screening of potential blood donors is necessarily long and tedious.
    we want the donated blood to be a source of comfort, and not a source of illness.
    at the same time, we do not want the donor to suffer ill health as a result of the donation.

    voluntary blood donation is a rare quality in our culture.
    i wish we would be more generous with our health.
    after all, there is only one source of human blood... fellow humans.

    so c'mon guys (you know who you are),
    instead of taking potshots at the blood donation program and how it has been affected by the times,
    why don't we make a beeline for the blood bank and donate some of our goodwill?

    ang hina-highlight ni kagalingan ung question sa blood donor kung nabakunahan against covid

    kagalingan is reinforcing his view that unvaccinated blood is sought after

    high value daw dugo niya kasi unvaccinated siya

    Ano ba sinasabi ko dati pa???? Itest lang symptomatic. From buksan bintana to sunlight, magnesium broth, itest lang may obvious na sakit. Kayo kasi mga top school mahina sa perceive think act.

    Ako lang ba dito.sa tsikot hindi pa naitest??? Wala ako plano magpadutdut ng ilong

    I think china has been doing this testing only may symptomas.

    and singapore another mRNA country mataas infectivity rate. Sabi nyo more pfizer ah hahaha

    Sabi ko nga I donot operate how this world operates.

    One of my fears about donating blood, & I can speak for many, is inadvertently acquiring the virus & bringing it home. I do want to donate but, is there a place, aside from hospitals or the Red Cross, where there aren’t a lot of cases?

    about donating blood. Nagawa ko yan year 2006 or 2007 ata. Gusto ko magdonate ulit kasi maganda naguunload ng iron sa katawan every 3months.

    Pero ang plano ko eh ako bibili ng itutusok sa akin at lagayan ng dugo and not hospital setting.

    Blood donors on average have superior health, but it's important to have good nutrition, because other nutrients are lost too."

    the whole point in vaccinating your population is to turn covid into a mild disease where very few need hospitalization and almost noone dies

    pero kung testing ka nang testing kahit mild/asymptomatic di matatapos itong pandemic

    the obsession with "cases" has to end

    we don't test for flu and report the number of new cases everyday

    ganyan din dapat sa covid next year if we want to go back to normal

    pero it seems WHO and governments won't let this fade
