It’s the first day of November and we’re starting it pretty well.

Today (1 Nov 2020), as of 12 pm, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has preliminarily confirmed 4 new cases of COVID-19 infection.

All of them are imported cases.

This brings the total number of cases to 58,019.

Based on yesterday’s numbers, the number of new, as well as unlinked, cases in the community has decreased from 3 cases in the week before, to 2 in the past week.

And while we’re going well here in Singapore, our neighbour up north is now struggling.

S’pore Won’t Reopen SG-JB Borders if COVID-19 Cases in Johor Continue to Spike

According to The Straits Times, Johor MCA Government Affairs coordinating chairman Michael Tay has unveiled the ultimatum:

Should Covid-19 cases in Johor spike, Singapore would not reopen the two land checkpoints.

“We have been declared a red zone. This is not good, especially when we are looking at reopening the border for workers soon, ” he said.

The declaration was made on Thursday (29 October).

As of 29 October, 65 active cases in the district were reported.

“Ten new Covid-19 cases were reported on Thursday, including nine cases from existing clusters and one from other screenings, ” said state Health and Environment Committee chairman R. Vidyananthan on 30 October.

The Johor Baru district has been declared a red zone after it has more than 40 COVID-19 cases in 14 days. At this moment, the state has 906 cases and 21 deaths.
