The remaining cases include 3 imported cases, while there were no community cases.

There were 361 quarantine orders (QOs) issued to potential cases yesterday (3 Sep), which marks a big decline from previous days.

No Covid-19 community cases on 4 Sep

No community cases were detected by MOH today.

Yesterday, there were 2 cases — 1 Singapore PR, and 1 Work Permit holder.

3 imported cases

MOH also reported 3 imported cases.

They were put on Stay-Home Notices (SHN) upon arrival in Singapore.

Yesterday, there were 5 imported cases, who arrived from India, Bangladesh, UAE, and the Philippines.

 

Similarly, all of them had been put on SHNs upon arrival.

14,300 people are currently on SHN.

3 average community cases this week

New unlinked community cases have increased to about 2 this week, compared to 1 a week before.

Meanwhile, the amount of community cases have also increased to an average of 3 daily this week.

This may indicate the prevalence of cases going undetected in the community, and measures may continue for a while.

It’s hence more important that we remain vigilant.
