Fear not, Omicron is here to save the world

 Omicron is spreading much faster than its predecessors but is less severe and infected people may not require hospitalization. However, many countries are suffering from the Singapore type of kiasu syndrome (ks). They closed their borders to foreigners even though these people are vaccinated and already had the booster shots. If it goes on like this, then the economies will be battered so bad to the extent where they may go bankrupt. Stop adopting the ks, open the borders and let tourists into the countries and you will prosper like never before. But first, treat the virus, in this case Omicron as a flu. Do not fear and have the guts to be the first to liberate your country from this "plan-demic"!

Omicron dashes hope of airline industry recovery

 It has been two years and the Covid-19 virus aren't going away. Current variant called Omicron has mutated from the deadly Delta parent. Omicron is at least three times more infectious and transmissible than Delta.

Due to the transmissible nature of Omicron, many countries are again closing their borders. Japan does not allow foreigners to enter its country, USA requires a Covid19 test 24 hours before arrival, Singapore make it mandatory for inbound travelers to be tested daily for seven straight days upon entry etc.

The closing of borders and banning travelers into the countries will have a negative impact on the airline and tourism sectors. SIA shares has taken a hit again after gaining some ground before the appearance of Omicron.

The question now is how long more this pandemic will go away? With the new variant, my guess is....for a long time. Then what will happen to our beloved SIA??

Pilot & cabin crew resigned

 

I lost 6 kilogram or 13 pounds eating healthily

 It's not a joke but I did lose 6 kg eating the food as shown in the video. Of course I lost the 6 kg over a couple of months. I only eat twice a day. Sometimes to reward myself, I would have cakes, ice creams etc. I like visiting McDonald's in Japan too. Stay healthy and safe and God Bless :-)

Update on captain's condition

 On 4th December I wrote a post on a captain being "incapacitated" on a London bound flight. I promised to update on the matter as soon as I get more information. I am now in possession of a WhatsApp message regarding the update but will not publish it due to privacy concern. However, I will give a summary of what was in the message.

The captain had a seizure but recovered after 20 minutes. He was sent to the hospital where a MRI CT scan was taken. The result showed he had a "tumor right side". The WhatsApp message did not specify where was the tumor but I suspect it may have been on the right side of his brain. He was prescribed medication to prevent the recurrence of seizures. He is recovering and is "mobile n lucid".

Super fit this ex colleague of mine

 

Many think that flying as a crew is unhealthy but my former colleague, John who is 77 years old is actively participating in competitive athletics.

Three cheers for Omicron!

This article by a German health expert said the "Omicron variant could be a Christmas gift" as it may spread faster, more infectious but less severe. Personally, I tend to agree with the professor. It's more severe than the usual seasonal flu but it will not kill nor create havoc like the Delta variant. In this aspect, it is good news for everyone except the big pharmacies and those that profited immensely from the pandemic.

Hip hip hooray to the airlines and tourism industries. You and the world will recover, thanks to Omicron! SIA will soar again and higher this time. Praise God for his mighty power which overcome the evil deeds of the devil and his offspring.

Captain was "incapacitated"

 A London bound flight from Singapore was delayed because the captain was "incapacitated" and unable to operate the flight. The details are still unclear as to what really happened and when it happened. Once I have more information, I will update here.
