Covid-19 case removed from count after ‘borderline positive’ test

Case 57,679, a 30-year-old Singaporean male, initially tested ‘borderline positive’ for Covid-19.

 

However, 2 subsequent tests came back negative, while his household contacts were also swabbed and they tested negative too.

Lab experts and an experts panel thus concluded that his case was a false positive, and have thus removed him from the case count.

MOH confirmed that all public health measures were taken while he was re-tested.
