Thanks Mat.

Singapore are now withholding daily vax status of deceased having done so diligently throughout covid. They used to break it down by unvaccinated, partially vaccinated and vaccinated since their daily reports began. Yesterday no breakdown. And today just below.

8. 16 more cases, aged between 44 and 90 years, have passed away from complications due to COVID-19 infection. All of them had various underlying medical conditions. The 44 year-old individual had not been vaccinated against COVID-19.

In Australia this started happening on Thursday also. The Victorian health department refused to release the vaccination status on 25 coronavirus fatalities.

But they run the risk that the rumor mill, will get ahead of their narrative, if enough people start sharing stories of friends/loved ones, who've succumbed to the virus, many people will start to see the disconnect between vaccines and saved lives.

The key is to write the stories in a positive vaccine light "If only Bob got vaccinated sooner, or got the fourth booster, he would still be with us today"
