MOH: DO NOT SELF MEDICATE WITH IVERMECTIN, IT DOES NOT CURE VIRUS

The Ministry of Health (MOH), has recently shared a post on their Facebook page advising the public not to self medicate with Ivermectin.

They added that there are some online websites and chat groups that have claimed that ivermectin can be used to cure Covid-19, but MOH has debunked this myths by saying that ivermectin is not a type of anti-viral medication and it is useless in curing or preventing one from getting infected with the virus.

According to MOH, here are some facts about Ivermectin.

DANGEROUS TO SELF-MEDICATE

This is because it is not an anti-viral medicine and it is not approved by the Health Science Authority (HSA) for prevention or cure of Covid-19.

NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF EFFECTIVENESS AGAINST COVID-19

It is said by many that ivermectin can be used to cure Covid-19, however the truth is ivermectin is a prescription only medication for treating parasitic worm infections.

NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS

There have been reports of people ending up requiring to be hospitalised because of self medicating with ivermectin.

These is because there are negative side effects of taking ivermectin and it includes vomiting, stomach pain, seizures, severe skin rash and liver injury.

MOH urges the public to consult a doctor and seek professional treatment should one have concerns or issues with Covid-19.

GIRL WANTS TO ASK GUY OUT, BUT IS AFRAID HE WILL REJECT HER

GIRL WANTS TO ASK GUY OUT, BUT IS AFRAID HE WILL REJECT HER

A story was recently seen online about a girl crushing on a guy after taking the same module as him.

They see each other via zoom lessons two times a week, and are in the same project group which gives them the chance to interact with one another albeit only through audio because they probably did not turn on their video during the project discussions on zoom.

The girl is thinking of whether she should ask the guy out, but eventually withheld back because she is afraid that the guy will reject her and it will lead to awkwardness as they are still going to see each other in the coming semester as they are taking the same module again.

She is seeking advice on whether or not she should pluck up the courage and just ask him out.

Here is the story (quoted)

‘Hello! I am a female undergrad and this semester, I took a mod with this guy. We saw each other twice a week during the semester through zoom lessons and since we were in the same project group, we also met through zoom a few times (but no video, only audio).

Since the semester is over, I am tempted to ask him out through telegram.

However, we are going to take another mod together next semester so if I get rejected by him, it is going to be so awkward next semester. Should I ask him out now or wait till the next semester is over?’

Editor’s note: Just ask before somebody else gets him then you’ll live to regret it.

GIRL SEEKING ADVICE ON WHAT TO ASK BOYFRIEND GOING FOR WORK ABROAD

A girl recently shared a story online that her boyfriend will be going overseas for work for a year and they will be meeting up to talk about their relationship and deciding if its feasible to keep it going in the long distance.

While long distance relationships (LDRs) are quite common amongst many couples, it can be difficult for some especially if the level of trust is not there.

The girl therefore seeks advice on what should she ask her boyfriend in their discussion over their relationship.

At the time of writing, they have been together for almost a year plus.

Here is the story (quoted)

‘I’ll be meeting my boyfriend tomorrow to talk about LDR. We have been together slightly more than a year. He will be relocating to another country for work next year. He may be there for 1-2years. Time difference is an hour and flight is 2hours.

Other than asking “do you see a future in us?” “what is the end goal for our ldr” “what do you think about us doing a ldr?”, what else should I ask?’

GRABFOOD RIDER DELIVERS FOOD IN ROLLS ROYCE WEARING $500K WATCH

GRABFOOD RIDER DELIVERS FOOD IN ROLLS ROYCE WEARING $500K WATCH

A video emerged online showing a Grabfood deliveryman delivering food to the customer in a Rolls Royce, wearing a Richard Mille watch worth about $500,000.

He was seen in the video pulling up in the extravagant car, as the cameraman (who is the customer) approached him to collect his order.

The deliveryman then handed the customer’s food to him, flashing his Richard Mille watch that is probably worth more than my entire house and life savings combined.

The cameraman was heard in the video exclaiming: “Wow, nowadays drive Grab in branded cars ah?”

He then asked the driver if driving Grab can really make money these days, to which the driver said no.

He further explained that he is in the property line and that that is where he is making his money.

The cameraman then asked if he could see his branded watch, asking him how much it costs.

The driver then said not much, adding that it only costs about $400k to $500k.

He then cut short the conversation and said that he has other matters to attend to.

Response to M’sians who looked down on delivery riders

In case it isn’t obvious by now, the video was a parody skit presumably in response to the Malaysian property agent who posted a video looking down on delivery riders.

The woman also caught the ire of local Facebook superstar Wang Lei.

The woman, Maggie Gong, commented on a Facebook live stream held on 7 November saying that many people are driving Grab due to the bad economy.

She then tried to soften her barbs by saying that she’s not looking down on private-hire drivers, but then she went on to look down on private-hire drivers saying that they can’t learn anything and can’t meet anyone.

She asked: “How rich can they be?”

Fong then proceeded to mock delivery riders, using her hands to pretend that she was riding a bike before walking around in that position and making motorcycle sounds with her mouth.

She said that those people have no future and are “useless”.

MAN WHO WAKEBOARDED AT CIVILIAN WAR MEMORIAL, FINED $4,000

Stephan Kovalkov, the 25-year-old Singaporean who was seen in a viral video disrespecting a national monument by wakeboarding at the Civilian War Memorial, was given a $4,000 fine on 12 November.

He had also damaged the memorial as a result of his actions.

What happened?

The incident happened on 17 July.

Kovalkov was in the company of 4 of his friends and they were searching for places to wakeboard, setting up a pulley system that operated via a motor at the monument’s water feature for his skiing attempt.

He suggested to his friends to meet up at the Civilian War Memorial at Beach Road, traveling in 2 cars and parking their vehicles at a nearby shopping mall before making their way over.

He set up a winch that he modified himself, to create the force that he needed to drag himself from one end of the water to the other.

He then strapped on his helmet and himself onto his wakeboard and performed a wall slide, where he jumped into the air with the board and brushed it against the monument’s wall in the process.

The infamous video went viral on social video, with many netizens blasting him and his disrespectful act for distaste.

The aforementioned pulley system was operated by his friend, Ekaterina Utkina, a 24-year-old Russian who is a Singapore PR.

However, none of his said accomplices took part in the wakeboarding and they have not been dealt with by the court.

Kovalkov’s wakeboard, helmet, and the winch that he modified himself have also since been confiscated by the police.

Deterrence is key

District Judge Kamala Ponnampalam said during the sentencing that deterrence is the key factor to deter others from committing the same mistakes.

It is also for us to cherish our national monuments.

Singapore Police Force and National Heritage Board statement

The Singapore Police Force and the National Heritage Board issued a joint statement on 13 September, saying that national monuments are important markers of our identity that highlight key milestones in our history.

They reiterated that due respect must be accorded to our national monuments, highlighting war memorials, and added that all acts of disrespect are unacceptable.

CAT RESCUED FROM 10TH-FLOOR BEDOK HDB AFTER FIRE BROKE OUT

A fire broke out in a 10th-floor HDB block in the afternoon of 12 November yesterday.

A cat found itself trapped on the ledge of the HDB building’s ledge as a result.

The SCDF said that they received a call for assistance at about 3.05 pm.

The fire took place at Block 106 Bedok Reservoir Road and was extinguished by the SCDF using a water jet.

40 residents nearby evacuated themselves prior to the arrival of the SCDF and one person suffered minor injuries from the fire, however that person declined to be conveyed to the hospital.

The fire involved the contents of a storage area unit.

Caught Pritam Singh’s attention

Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh then shared a Facebook post about the fire, sharing his thoughts on the matter.

He said:

“I received word of a fire at Blk 106 in the Eunos ward of Aljunied GRC this afternoon.

Fortunately, there were no injuries, and the fire was quickly brought under control by the Singapore Civil Defence Force.

Thankful to the team from the Singapore Police Force who managed the incident site.

Post-fire investigations are ongoing and the Aljunied-Hougang Town Council team and our term contractors are on-site assisting.

There is an outstanding matter – we need to secure a poor cat – help is on the way.

I understand an alert next-door neighbour raised the alarm before the fire became grew too large, probably averting a block evacuation and more damage. As with each fire incident, this is another reminder to be familiar with fire safety guidelines.”

Cat brought to safety

Facebook user Hana Amin Yunn then shared a Facebook update on the situation of the cat, who has since been brought to safety.

In her Facebook post, a man could be seen at the window armed with a large net to “catch” the cat and bring it to safety, much to the raucous cheers of the onlookers.

The cat has also been reunited with its owner, according to the Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS).

RIDER FINED $100 BY LTA BECAUSE WIDTH OF NUMBER ON PLATE LESSER BY 5MM

A post was seen on Facebook recently about a rider receiving a fine of $100 after an inspection by a LTA officer on his motorbike license plate.

A check on one motoring website shows that letters and digits are to be 50mm high, 30mm wide and 5mm broad.

In the case for this rider, his motorbike’s license plate was only 50mm high and 25mm wide, 5mm short of the legal requirement.
