You’d have thought that with the announcement of the “closure” of Singapore borders today, there would have been many imported cases today.
Apparently not; there are 23 cases today instead, with 18 of them being imported.
Here’s today’s announcement.
23 New COVID-19 Cases in S’pore Today (22 Mar); 18 Are Imported
Out of the 23 cases reported today, 18 of them are imported.
9 of them have come from the UK, 1 from Canada, 2 from Malaysia, 3 from the US and the rest have been to a few countries.
Of all the imported cases, only 1 is a short-term visitor (i.e. tourist)—a 55-year-old female American. Lest you didn’t know, from tomorrow 11:59pm onwards, short-term visitors can no longer enter Singapore.
For the local cases, 2 are linked to previously confirmed cases, 1 is linked to the cluster at boulder+ Gym and 2 are currently still unlinked.

The conditions of the remaining patients are either stable or improving.
