SINGAPORE — An 86-year-old Singaporean woman died on Monday (Aug 23) from complications due to Covid-19.

In its nightly update on the coronavirus situation here, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said that the woman’s case was first reported on Aug 2.

She was admitted to Changi General Hospital on July 23 for an unrelated medical condition and tested negative for Covid-19 during admission as well as on July 29.

Her case was detected when she was tested for the coronavirus on Aug 2 as she was identified as a close contact of a patient who was a confirmed case.

“She had not been vaccinated against Covid-19, and had a history of cancer and hypertension,” said MOH.

This is the 13th death from Covid-19 this month.

There are now 50 people here who have died after contracting the coronavirus.

On Monday, MOH recorded 98 new Covid-19 cases, bringing the total tally to 66,576 since the outbreak began.
 

Earlier on Monday evening, Health Minister Ong Ye Kung noted in a Facebook post that many Singaporeans have expressed concern about the spate of Covid-19 deaths recently.

Mr Ong said that the health ministry has plotted the incidence of deaths and intensive care unit (ICU) admissions “by the date when the patient was detected to have been infected”.

This means that if a case was tested Covid-19 positive on Aug 1 but deteriorated and got admitted to ICU or died on Aug 10, MOH would plot the data point on Aug 1, instead of Aug 10.

“The chart shows that most of the deaths arose from infections that happened earlier in the month. Then, we had more daily cases and importantly, fewer people were vaccinated (11 out of the 12 patients who passed away were not fully vaccinated),” he wrote.
 

Mr Ong stressed that it is important for members of the public to get vaccinated, adding that he has met residents who are worried about getting jabbed as they have “underlying illnesses, or they fall sick easily”.

“In many of such instances, they need the vaccines even more because the chances of them falling very sick if infected with Covid-19 are much higher,” he said.

So i can't do mindless farming unless i log in and out again at town?

 

No wonder i cannot find red flowers....

You can set your spawn point by standing next to a campfire. A word of caution, /home sends you back to Elden (noob town) no matter where you are on the map. /kill will respawn you at your spawn point with full HP.

I wonder if the gameworld respawn the crafting materials or mobs like what most mmorpg does?

 

No play minecraft thus fumbling about the controls (used to WoW controls). 

The respawn works a little like minecraft, when there are no players in a chunk of the map, it is unloaded by the server. The next time a player moves into or login to the chunk, it is regenerated with new resources.

Tips and Tricks

1. Armor and Weapons is everything

Even with good stats, you'll still suffer without good gear in this game. Your crafting menu is your friend, use it to figure out what armor you need and adventure with that in mind.

2. Top on the chart doesn't mean best in the game

Depending on your play style, highest ranking gear might not be the best in game. Ask other players and experiment a bit to figure out which mix you prefer.

3. Tab to switch weapons

If you play solo, learn to aggro single monsters from a pack and lure it to a safe corner. Tab to switch to melee weapon and finish the job.

4. Hold down left click for continuous attack

That took toooo long for me to figure out...

5. Healing sceptre will safe you a LOT of pots

To use the healing spell on a sceptre, you will need a few combos before you right click, the trick is that it doesn't have to be the same weapon.  What I do is to have a sceptre in my action slot, which I will quickly switch too and right click after a finish killing a monster, IF I've in a safe zone.

6. Side step right and circle your enemy as you melee

This reduces the damage you take from monsters that have slow but heavy attacks

7. Put your pots in the 'Q' slot

Side step right, stop your attacks, hit q to pot. If you're are holding on to your mouse click, your action slot keys won't work.

Nowadays, if it's not life threatening, you help by calling the fire station. 好心被雷劈
