Coughs, cold, fever at epidemic level
The Straits Times, January 20, 2011
There is unuasually a huge number of people failing ill lately with the symtoms like coughs, cold, fever,sore throats and diarrhoea. The number is large enough to classify as infections as an epidemic. Lately, polyclinics have saw more that 20,000 patients with the symtoms, this shows that the infections has been spreading rapidly around the community.
Last week, 18,377 patients turned up at polyclinics with Acute Respiratory Infections , a term used to cover a range of infections such as the common cold, influenza, bronchitis and pneumonia. This is almost 1,000 cases more a day than the norm. when the the cases of the ARI top 17,032 a week at polyclinics, it would be serious enough to be classified as an epidemic. And now, the number of cases are still rising.

After reading this article, then I'd realise that there are quite a number of people failing sick lately and felt the seriousness in this issue. It had also reminded me of the previous incidents- SARS and H1N1. During those time, I recalled that schools provide thermometers and conduct temperature taking exercise at least twice daily, some school even go to the extend of calling off lesson and conduct e-learning at home. Everyone is very tense and sensitive in the issue, people do not dare to take public transports and even step out of the house as they scare that they might get infected.

After going through so much, I believe that everyone should be experience and know what to do and what precautions to take. We should be responsible for our own health and keep ourself healthy at all time. We should also have social awareness- if you know you are not feeling well, do not go school or your work place, immediately visit a doctor and receive treatment as soon as possible. Lastly, I hope that, those who are ill to get well soon. God Bless...
