It has been almost two years since the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in Singapore. As the Republic continues to battle the virus, Omicron cases are starting to make up a bigger proportion of daily infections. We spoke to Linette Lai, Health Correspondent from The Straits Times, about the new variant and her experience covering the pandemic.
