  "account": "Former Jurong GRC Member of Parliament Tan Wu Meng wished Sengkang GRC MP Jamus Lim a speedy recovery after learning about the latter's hospitalization for pneumonia. In a Facebook post on October 12, Tan reminisced about their conversations in Parliament over the years and expressed his hope for Lim's swift and uneventful recovery. The two exchanged brief comments on Tan's post, with Lim appreciating Tan's kind words and recalling the guidance he received when he first joined Parliament. Tan, who is an oncologist at National Cancer Centre Singapore and a clinical assistant professor at Duke-NUS Medical School, followed up with Lim, offering his well wishes and encouraging them to stay in touch. Lim, who was seen sniffling and wiping his nose during a House speech on October 6, later revealed that his condition had progressed from a bad case of Influenza A to a full-blown pneumonia. He attributed the decline in his blood oxygen level to the pneumonia and checked himself into the hospital over the weekend.",
