Rainbows Appeared All Over Singapore After A Storm, Sending Us Hope Amid Covid-19 Outbreak

Singapore ventured into a ‘storm’ last month when we had the first case of Covid-19 on our shores.

While the situation might seem bleak with prevalent supermarket frenzies and a rising number of cases, a glimmer of hope shone upon us on Tuesday (11 Feb).

Singaporeans spotted rainbows across the island in the evening after an intense bout of torrential rain in the afternoon.

Symbolic of an eventual end to the predicament we are in, it reinstills a sense of hope for all Singaporeans even if we are caught in a raging storm.

Against the grey of the skies, reminiscent of the earlier storm, the rainbow stands proud above Tan Tock Seng Hospital, located across the road.

Within the facility, hospital staff are battling Covid-19 in the National Centre of Infectious Disease (NCID), housing all infected patients.

The rainbow watches over them as they toil day and night to contain the virus.

It serves as a reminder of the light at the end of the dark tunnel that they are forging towards.

Weathering the storm together

However, a rainbow plasters across the sky, encouraging us to hang on even when the going gets rough.
