Could you believe that just a month ago, on 11 July, we had only 1 community case?
As of 12pm today (11 Aug), the Ministry of Health (MOH) has preliminarily confirmed 63 new cases of COVID-19 infection.
61 of them are community cases.
Of the community cases, 17 of them are unlinked.
Based on yesterday’s number, the number of new cases in the community has decreased from 799 cases in the week before to 481 cases in the past week. The number of unlinked cases in the community has also decreased from 238 cases in the week before to 138 cases in the past week.
The 7-day moving average number of all linked community cases and all unlinked community cases are 49.0 and 19.7 respectively.
All Sinovac Stocks Here Fully Allocated
On 10 August, the Ministry of Health (MOH) announced that all of the 200,000 existing Sinovac stocks here were officially fully allocated.
Of these, 170,000 will be reserved for over 31 private healthcare clinics islandwide to administer.
Lest you’re unaware, you can visit participating private healthcare clinics for the Sinovac vaccine, which uses the traditional vaccine method.
30,000 stocks will be given to those who previously experienced allergic reactions to the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, including Singaporeans, permanent residents and long-term pass holders.
They will also be reserved for “other purposes”, said the MOH.
But fret not; they’re ordering more stocks now.
MOH said that the new stock is expected to arrive at about four to six weeks later, having ordered them to assist private healthcare institutions.
So that means you don’t need to queue overnight at clinics to get your hands on them.
