A total of 47 cases were reported today.
39 of them were imported, with 33 of them being returning Singapore residents (i.e. Singaporeans, Singapore PRs or long-term pass holders). The other 6 were short-term visitors (most probably tourists).
2 imported cases aren’t warded in public hospitals but private hospitals instead: a 22-year-old female Indonesian who is on a short-term pass is warded in Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital while a 77-year-old male Indonesian, who has a long-term pass, is warded in Mount Elizabeth Hospital.
16 of them have been to the UK. There is, however, one case with a pending travel history; he’s a 25-year-old male Spain national.
Of the remaining 8 local cases, 2 are linked to previously confirmed cases. 6 of them currently have no established links yet.
