Excited to be the 'News' haha

[@jacz6645]

Thank you, now I know I wasn't the only one thinking it.

[@hlc95]

Some people have a “smiling face “ though they are not really smiling

[@zephyr2669]

Had the same thoughts, he's smiling while explaining

[@paulyoung4422]

He knows it's Monkey Pox.

[@Amina-rd2zz]

The more he smile the more it stress me out........my heart is beating fast out of fear 😅😅😅

[@tonychong6889]

Very up to date buddy, I’m from North America. Our healthcare system did have the preventive measures of Mpox, although is not widely spread but b4 it get into widespread we have to prevent, is very important massage to the people. Singapore is doing it great job, that’s what we like Singapore, a developed nation just like us ❤keeping up the good work, let the nation know what has been going on.

[@VinayakP]

Dr has a nice smile. Shoutout to Dr. Yang.

[@huiyingtanyayap]

I think Dr. is very passionate about infectious diseases . he smiles all the time . I think even he is in stressful situations. Is a good trait :)

[@jehangirthegreat]

'Yes it is itchy and painful' 😊

[@owenchuarbx]

It’s still called monkeypox for me

[@skywalker5936]

A joyful doc.

🙏When you're on the road, try to bring some disinfectant sanitizers. Personal hygiene can boost your immunity. Try to sanitize your hands when you cannot wash them. Try to disinfect your WC toilet seats before use. Popular options include sanitizer sprays, disinfectant sprays, and handwashing liquids. ECOSAM sponsors our National Day Parade 2024. Thank you all, and take care.🙏

How many cases of mpox does Singapore have now? The last I heard is 13.

[@趙子龍-u9j]

They can easily announce it 1300 or 13,000. It's just a number plucked out from the air.

OMG, why is he so happy to deliver something that’s so serious. Especially happy to smile about saying people can die from the more serious strains of the Mpox. Good grief!

[@SuperBotanica]

Bill Gates reaction is the same when he talked about a virus

[@tonykiang9052]

Your happy expert

[@TheZone1007]

so he should be crying in the video ? lol

[@privateeye7559]

So can this expert come out with some interventions?

[@hal511bm]

Thank you for the excellent video and information, sincerely.God Bless.

Thank you Dr for giving us more info on the nature n spread of Mpox. It is definitely helpful n informative. Xie xie

Remember the K in monkeypox is silent. 🤫

[@koruspring1519]

Not the right circumstances to smile, doc.

[@hengbin2974]

From today's (27/8/24) ST: “We don’t understand our outbreak very well, and if we don’t understand our outbreak very well we will have difficulty addressing the problem in terms of transmission dynamics, the severity of the disease, risk factors of the disease,” Dr Ogoina said." So does Hsu Li Ling knows more about mpox than those doctors/researchers in Africa itself? Over to you Hsu Li Ling - dun just avoid/pretend not to know.

[@NoahLee-g9r]

Because it is still very low cases that we have here in SG. He smiles its also because he's confident with our MOH. And yea.. ya'll should smile too.. we have had like how many viruses attacked since SARS right? And looked at us now. Still standing. Chicken-pox,M-pox, whatever lah.. "Comes what may" NehNeh-pox we'll be here fighting.. or..,?😊

Where is David Lye ? Where is Leong Hoi Nam ? Where is Dale Fisher ? Where is Paul Thambiyah ? Where are all these who are really gaslighting experts ?

Is there any vacination recommended ?

Why is he so happy?

[@VernHowChan]

thank you dr

[@letsgoletsgoletsgoletsgoletsgo]

Monkey pox is renamed mpox due to "sensitivities" but chicken pox isnt cpox

[@CGTNinEnglish]

What's the sensitivity in chicken pox? It's just another silly made up name by scientists like mpox

[@urbansaints]

I tot this thing just started to spread and now we have experts already

[@mongtkb]

Monkeypox is from (gay) sex, heard about the spreading like last year when a tourist flew from Africa to Phuket

[@syq8888]

Q & A bots. Thanks for the info.

[@tonykiang9052]

So many 'experts' around but non have the solutions, till they expire LOL

[@bhavikshah5016]

That smile.. Grrrr

[@ferrerocher]

Talk about resting b face but Doc have a resting smily face haha and don't disturb his hair la, he probably study alot to know all of this, maybe we would all go bald too with that much knowledge! Thanks Doc for the info!

[@JForceGaming]

If it's still in Africa then okay

[@janjamesramos247]

it's already in Asia

[@diypromax]

People are still gathering so it's always a matter of time before the next biggest spike in cases, and it's likely those people last gathering of their lives.

[@svonkarmo433]

We have to be positively excited about MPOX, as it will help to control the Sahel countries who spins out of the control of the French and the West and trying (heaven forbid!) to gain independence and have the audacity to cooperate with China & Russia.

[@diypromax]

For those who loves to take jabs previously, now you can go to take jabs again, good luck to you all.

[@pandemicoftheunvaccinated5367]

Again, you antigov/antivax minions just threw the; elderly, those with underlying health problems and people from poor countries, all under a bus.

[@diypromax]

By the way majority people said there are no more food safety and other safety, the next meal the people eat are likely the last meal of their lives.

[@ohgin12345]

What do you mean

[@skanthaadsigns]

If only HIV can be presented this way….

[@jamie68560]

why tf IS HE SMILING? Is that is normal facial expression??

[@lfc1981]

from online..."mpox is not exclusively transmitted among gay men, although a significant number of recent cases have been reported" so erm....as long as you are not this group, no need worry so much lah.

[@elizaeri1295]

True but most mainstream media won't highlight this

[@jamie68560]

it LITERALLY spreads from non-sexual contact, and it originated from rats. You have the same risk as they do if you're in contact with someone who has it. Stop spreading misinformation

[@vincecarlo]

MORE FEAR MONGERING

[@stevenloke8368]

That's how they stay relevant, implement more control and earn more money

[@HelenaGeorge-g7s]

Why the doctor smiling . He is not serious of what he said . His expression telling you let it be .

[@jelly.cube.s]

NO NO NO NO NOT AGAIN

I thought mpox was spread by having inappropriate relations with Monkeys

[@ogapadoga2]

As opposed to appropriate relationships with monkeys?

[@MidnightTheGuineadragon]

no, we could have ended this long ago if more people wore masks. Also, Covid was a new thing at the time so we were not really sure what to do. Monkeypox, however, we already have treatments for.

What's important lucky I didn't had any brand of the jab before and that's why never sick before, as majority people said after they took the jabs previously but nowadays they only became more and more easily to fall sick, it's the pap party mistakes and there's no way to u-turn back.
