SINGAPORE - The nation's Covid-19 vaccination rate has reached a new milestone, with 80 per cent of the population having received two doses of the vaccine as at Sunday (Aug 29). Revealing this in a Facebook post on Sunday, Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said: "Singapore has taken another step forward in making ourselves more resilient to Covid-19." Mr Ong said more than 4,300 homebound individuals have received their Covid-19 jab by the home vaccination teams. The Health Ministry receives about 700 requests for home vaccinations each week and it has tripled its home vaccination teams from 11 to 33 teams with help from 200 volunteer doctors and nurses and the Singapore Armed Forces, he said. As a result, waiting time has been halved from eight weeks to four weeks, he added. "We aim to complete all home vaccinations by end-Sept. That will be another important step forward," he said. On Friday, the Health Ministry said that three unvaccinated seniors died of Covid-19 complications on Thursday and Friday. Two were "non-ambulatory and had limited movement outside of their homes", the ministry said in its nightly update. More on this topic Related Story Number of home-vaccination teams tri...

SINGAPORE - Lugging a cooler chest containing Covid-19 vaccines and a 15kg suitcase filled with medical equipment, resuscitation tools and an oxygen canister, Dr Nathaniel Ng and a nurse headed to a Housing Board flat in Hougang to vaccinate a senior citizen. After thoroughly checking that the woman was eligible for vaccination, and recording her vitals, the nurse administered the injection. They then observed the bedbound senior for 30 minutes. After confirming that she had no allergic or anaphylactic reactions, and therefore no need for their standby resuscitation equipment or medicines, they bid farewell and moved to the next location. They had at least 10 more homes to visit. The daily workload has doubled in recent weeks for Dr Ng and the dozen other home vaccination teams conducting at-home jabs. The scheme caters to immobile seniors who are not able to make their own way to vaccination centres. When it started in June, each home vaccination team visited six to eight households a day. Since a month ago, they have had to inoculate up to 14 seniors a day, working shifts that last between 10 and 12 hours, said Dr Ng, who is medical director of home care service Jaga-Me. Last Fri...

Outplay Raises USD 7.3 Million to Make Outbound Sales Scalable

San Francisco, Jul 22, 2021 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Multi-channel sales engagement platform, Outplay today announced its $7.3M series A fundraise from Sequoia Capital India. Outplay will use the funds raised to invest in technology and hiring exceptional talent across the globe. Businesses today rely on a combination of inbound and outbound sales models to drive revenues. While the inbound sales process has rapidly evolved over the last 10 years, outbound sales hasn't. Outbound sales teams typically use high-volume tactics to drive revenue. But this approach is not scalable and the revenue eventually becomes a function of the size of the outbound sales team. This is because outbound sales teams don?t have a data-driven approach for targeting prospects that are most likely to convert and end up spending time emailing or cold-calling hundreds of prospects hoping to convert a few. Launched in 2019, Outplay is on a mission to change this by bringing predictability to outbound sales and help every salesperson talk to the right prospect at the right time through the right channel. The platform helps outbound sales teams plan, execute, track, measure and optimize interactions...
