I was rather interested to find out more about the various publications and advisories regarding influenza which the various Ministries in Singapore have produced over the past years of tackling varying degree of influenza situations.
What first caught my interest in searching for these publications was the comic strip Chew On It!, created by Lee Chee Chew. If you find the above characters or drawing style familiar, you would understand what I mean. Lee’s depicts the lives of Singaporeans through comics drawings and his comics strip are published in comics section of The Sunday Times and maybe also in the Opinion section of The Straits Times.
In my quest of online and library search of advisories and publications regarding influenza from various agencies in Singapore, here is a list of what I have found.
(Do note that some of the hyperlinks leads you to the individual posts about the material, some leads you to the actual online copy.)
Resources websites:
- Ministry of Health – Influenza resources in the form of posters, and pamphlets, booklets and informational advertisements. ( This is the load of resources)
- Health Promotion Board, Singapore – Soap Stops Your Flu from Becoming Someone Else’s
Advisories, Guides and Publications (not exhaustive):

The list will get updated along the way. Do come back and have a look.
