Singapore is very, very different today.
Malls now have checkpoints, we now can’t smell the shampoo of the person queuing in front of you and from now on, if we receive a 5-day MC for respiratory illnesses, we can’t even leave our house.
And also, the number of locally transmitted cases is now higher than imported cases, which means shit has hit the fan.
Here’s today’s announcement.
49 New COVID-19 Cases in S’pore Today (27 Mar); More Local Cases Than Imported Cases Now
Out of the 49 new cases today, 22 are imported. Most of them have been to the UK, the US and Europe, with some travel history still pending.
The other 27 cases are local cases:
- 3 are linked to the Dover Court International School cluster, which now has 7 linked cases
- 5 are linked to the PCF Fengshan cluster, which now has 25 linked cases
- 2 are linked to a new cluster, one at SingPost Centre, and it’s linked to a previously confirmed case so the total linked cases here is 3
- 8 are linked to previously confirmed cases
- 9 have no links yet
Details of the new link at SingPost Centre aren’t revealed yet.
Updates on Confirmed Cases
In total, there are now 732 cases in Singapore.
