Collective disappointment
We were so close to being declared Sars-free by WHO when they found a Malaysian man residing in Singapore with the disease today. Just hours away to that psychological label, and then we have to wait another 20 days, again. I only hope that the man did not get it from the community, and then he did not spread it further. Who knows who he has been in touch with? The goverment keeps saying that we are in this "for the long haul". Sigh.
