Hospital standards still top-notch
I came down recently with red eyes, so I visited the Singapore General Hospital's accident and emergency department. Although I had to wait for two hours, the attention and medical care given to me was top-notch and personalised. I was also assured that the viral conjunctivitis was not related to Covid-19.
Throughout the three hours I spent at the hospital, I never felt that the healthcare system was overwhelmed or disorganised. I left the hospital with the confidence that Singapore's front-line medical workers are resilient enough to rise to the challenge of Covid-19.
