On Monday (24 Aug), Singapore preliminarily confirmed 51 new Covid-19 cases.
Among these new cases, just 1 is a case in the community, who is a Singaporean.
We now have a total of 56,404 confirmed cases, the Ministry of Health (MOH) reported.
Of the new cases reported, 7 of them are classified as imported.
All of them were placed on Stay-Home Notice (SHN) when they arrived in Singapore, MOH said.
The ministry will release additional details tonight.
On Sunday (23 Aug), MOH announced that a new cluster was formed at a dormitory in Kaki Bukit — Homestay Lodge at 39 Kaki Bukit Avenue 3.
This comes after one of the 87 confirmed cases on Sunday (23 Aug) was found to have links to 4 previously confirmed cases.
Separately, 2 more were linked to Sungei Tengah Lodge (500 Old Choa Chu Kang Road) – announced on Saturday (22 Aug) – which now consists of 58 cases.
Some 4,800 workers there will now have to serve SHNs.
MS News wishes those infected a quick recovery.
