The Ministry of Health (MOH) has made early confirmation of 4 new Covid-19 cases today (23 Feb). This brings the national tally to 59,883.
Of the new cases, there are:
All imported cases had been placed on Stay-Home Notice upon arrival in Singapore, and were tested during their stay.
MOH will release more details tonight.
In yesterday’s update, Singapore confirmed 10 new Covid-19 cases on 22 Feb, comprising 9 imported and 1 in the community.
Here’s a summary of the details, according to MOH last night:
They had all already been placed on SHN upon arrival in Singapore and were tested during their stay.
The sole community case yesterday is linked to a previous case.
He is a 43-year-old Singaporean male who is the husband of a 41-year-old Singaporean female who works as a Singapore Airlines cabin crew. She was previously confirmed with the infection on 9 Feb.
As authorities identified him as her close contact, he was placed under quarantine. However, he didn’t report his symptoms of anosmia on 15 Feb.
He tested positive on 21 Feb — one day after he started having a fever.
Yesterday’s concerning update regarding the community case shows that we cannot afford to be lax when it comes to Covid-19.
In a time when frontliners are working hard to safeguard public health, residents should also do their part by being socially responsible.
Other than wearing a mask and practising safe distancing, this also means promptly seeking medical attention when you have symptoms like fever, cough, and a loss of smell.
It only takes 1 person to jeopardise the progress Singapore has made in the past year. So together, let’s do our best in being a socially responsible person.
