Problem with Crowded MRT

Thank God, I'm on the road towards recovery from my sudden bout of fever, body ache, vomitting, flu & giddiness. Hooray! It's not dengue fever!

But one thing still worries me - and that's about being in a crowded MRT when going to work in the early morning. I think it's a very efficient means of transportation to get commuters from a place to another, but there is one serious problem of the crowded space... coz it is a very easy place for germs to spread, be it the common flu or even SARS to other infectious illness.

Since it's not dengue fever, there is a very high chance that I fell sick on Tuesday because of the number of people coughing & sneezing near to me inside the crowded MRT to Tanjong Pagar. Of course, I should blame it on my low body resistance & for exercising much lesser these weeks... but still, the threat & problem exists... that crowded & enclosed MRT journeys can be a major means for germs to spread. And that's not something to be relaxed about... especially for those who are not too physically resistant against germs & flu bugs.
