The Ministry of Health (MOH) has made early confirmation of 28 new Covid-19 cases today (5 Jan). This brings the national tally to 58,749.
Of the 28, there are:
All 26 imported ones had already been serving Stay-Home Notices (SHNs) or placed in isolation upon arrival.
Among them are 4 Singaporeans or Permanent Residents (PRs), and 13 domestic workers.
In the meantime, 1 of the 2 community cases is a close contact of a previously identified patient. MOH will release more details tonight.
Recapping yesterday’s update, Singapore had confirmed 24 new Covid-19 cases on 4 Jan, comprising all imported ones.
Here’s a breakdown of the details, according to MOH:
They are all currently serving SHN or isolated upon arrival in Singapore, and were tested during their stay.
As Singapore eases travel restrictions for essential purposes like work, authorities are also actively filtering out the virus at our borders before travellers can mingle in the community.
Even though vaccines are currently underway, we should remain vigilant as a community to ensure that the Covid-19 outbreak is under control in Singapore.
So, mask up, follow all Covid-19 safety measures, and more importantly, practise good hygiene.
