Dr. Ong-Lim on whether MECQ should be imposed again or not: There will be a time for that. The most effective intervention is to stop people from moving, but if we do that, and we don't learn how to figure out the lapses in the system, then this will be a temporary measure.

Dr. Ong-Lim on the proposed abolition of the IATF: To be fair, the IATF has taken into consideration inputs from the health and economic sectors. There are so many moving parts to get going and there's need for coordination
