Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said he tested Covid positive for a second time on Thursday morning.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has tested positive for Covid-19 again, just weeks after he caught the disease.

"I feel fine but I am afraid I have turned Covid-19 positive again," he said in an Instagram post on Thursday (June 1) morning.

"My doctors say it is a Covid rebound, which happens in 5-10 per cent of cases. It is still infectious although the risk is not high compared to the initial infection."

PM Lee said that the doctors have advised him to self-isolate until he tests ART negative.

He added that he had very much looked forward to attending the consecration ceremony of Sri Thendayuthapani Temple this morning.

"But unfortunately I will now have to miss it to keep others around me safe. My apologies to the organisers, and to all those attending the ceremony. I wish everyone a very successful consecration and celebration!" he said.

Singapore’s Ministry of Health is not made made up of idiots (like ours) - surely they know this is all a gigantic scam by now. What bribes or threats have been proffered to keep their mouths shut, I wonder?

Sounds like he has Loong Covid.

Medicare sent us 4 covid test kits; which we didn't ask for.

Threw them in the garbage.
