Today’s (or should I say yesterday’s?) announcement came so late, I won’t blame you if you think there are 8,888 new COVID-19 cases on 12 April 2020.
After all, we got to know that 5 McDonald’s employees were infected; that’s rather bad, isn’t it?
However, thank goodness there are 233 cases instead.
And just like previous days, most of the cases are people residing in dormitories, work sites and other living quarters.
Here’s today – I mean, yesterday’s (12 April 2020) report.
233 New COVID-19 Cases in S’pore on 12 Apr; 7 New Clusters Found
Out of the 233 new cases, 167 are still unlinked and pending contact tracing. Of this, 141 are work permit holders, mostly residing in dormitories, work sites and other living quarters.
Of the remaining 66 cases, 51 are linked to known clusters while 15 are linked to previously confirmed cases.
