Yellow Alert !
Finally I am having my resting day after nearly 5 days of work... Today the weather is extremely good. As I am very tired the pass few days, I slept till 1pm then woke up.
Belle and I didn’t sleep for more than 24 hours after our Sunday night shift. She came over to my house to bath before we go for coffee at Old Town at East Coast, as it a bit too early for our hair treatment and cut. We reach Marina Square at about 11am, by the time we finish our treatment and hair, it about 2pm. We head down to Suntec to look for our working shoes. Damn, always doesn’t have our size, plus it quite uncomfortable to me when I wear it. Thus, we decided not to buy it but look for better and cheaper ones. By then we are so hungry and craving for Ikea’s chicken wings and salmon, we decided to drive down to eat. When we finish eating it about 5pm and its time for me to fetch my sister home from work so we decided to called it a day. When I reach home, it already 7 plus, I took my dinner and head to bed. It is because I having another day shift the next day. While driving belle home, I almost fell asleep but luckily I didn’t.
Yesterday after my morning shift, on my way home I received a called from my hospital stating that I am on standby for the swine flu and it has be raise to yellow alert.
Oh my god! Yellow alert means that front liners have to don up PPE and wear N95 mask. I am quite worried as I only have 1 fitted mask size because of my pretty face with high cheek bone; I am unable to fit in N95 except for dragger masks. The worse is not here yet, since yesterday I heard that all staff in ICU and CE has to don up gowns too… It is so hot when wearing gown and I saw a lot of PAPR being standby in our ward for the pandemic outbreak.
What is worse is that through my colleague, I heard that I am being selected to standby in CDC in case of outbreak. Oh no… (But it’s a great experience.)
Hopefully it doesn’t get out of control and the alert doesn’t rise further. If it goes to orange alert then I think all the healthcare workers got to get isolated by publics again.
PS: Let’s be prepared mentally and get ready for the war! Kill all Swine! Onk... Onk…
