People in Singapore infected by the Zika virus has risen to 82 by yesterday. The areas most affected are Sims Drive/Aljunied, Kallang Way and Paya Lebar Way.
USA has joined a growing list of countries like Australia, UK, Taiwan etc warning their citizens especially the pregnant women or those wanting to get pregnant to avoid travelling to Singapore.
Zika can cause women to give birth to babies with smaller than usual heads.
So far there is no panic among Singaporean regarding the Zika thing. However, one infectious disease specialist warned that the virus could spread to half of the nation.
Zika, like dengue is spread by the Aedes mosquitoes.

My breakfast at the coffee shop

Got up very early this morning and waited till the coffee shop nearby opened its door for business. Had the fish ball noodles and my cup of kopi O. It has been a while since I last visited this place. Noodles remain at $3.50 and kopi at $1. The place is air-conditioned but one may dine outside which is non air-conditioned. There is a section outside for smoking.

Lunch was Chicken Chop set@ Toast Box

Yesterday when I was at Toast Box (Greenwich area) they didn't have the chicken chop set. Today, I tried the one at Seletar Mall and it's available ($7.80). The donut ($1.70)was an extra treat from Bread Talk. The food was average and the coffee, a disappointment.

Had pineapple and banana for dinner. Wish I had some Hokkaido melon from Japan or sweet and juicy watermelon from Taiwan.
