MOH has also confirmed that 322 patients were discharged today. This brings the total number of recoveries in Singapore to 23,904.

Community cases have risen

This is the third consecutive day that community cases have risen.

Although it is too soon to tell if the increase has anything to do with entering Phase 1, we should still remain vigilant to keep community cases from rising.
