Unfortunately, his condition got worse over time and he succumbed yesterday.

The National University Hospital is assisting the deceased’s family during this time.

 

Last day of ‘Circuit Breaker’

Although this is the last day of the months-long ‘Circuit Breaker’, Singapore is taking a measured approach in reopening the economy.

For most of us, we still can’t dine-in at restaurants and hawker centres yet. Working from home will still be a thing in the future.

Hopefully by mid-Jun the situation has improved to a point where we can reunite with friends and loved ones.

Meanwhile, MS News wishes those infected a speedy recovery and hope they’ll be discharged soon.

We also offer our condolences to the family of the deceased.
