This pattern doesn’t repeat itself in other countries. That makes me wonder whether Singapore might have a blanket policy to hospitalize all patients to monitor them (and kind of also make sure they don’t go anywhere and infect more people)? While that wouldn’t be my first reading when I read the above sentence, I find such alternative hypotheses more likely than “there are very few truly mild cases” because there seems to be a lot of counterevidence to that from other countries’ reports.
Edit: Comment was based on a misreading of Wei’s claim & can be ignored for that matter.
