Hi all,
I am looking into a feasibility of conducting a cohort health study. Let say should one be sick (flu, cold and other infections), a trained nurse can go to a location of your choice to take a swab and maybe some blood from you for testing, for free of course.
The results of the test will be sent back to you online. A free health screening (cholesterol, blood sugar level etc) will be thrown in.

Why 8 million die each year from hunger, neglect and malnutrition.

- never be expected to pay any kind of tax/ toll for use of public roads, be provided with more available parking options by authorities, be provided with more bike tracks around SG.
