Unlike other clusters, it appears that the number of daily cases in the Jurong Fishery Port cluster has been rather consistent. Consistently high.
As of 12pm today (26 Jul), the Ministry of Health (MOH) has preliminarily confirmed 135 new cases of COVID-19 infection.
129 of them are community cases.
Of the 129 locally-transmitted cases, 28 are currently unlinked. 6 cases belong to the KTV cluster, while 61 are linked to the Jurong Fishery Port cluster.
This brings the total number of cases in Singapore to 64,314.
Based on yesterday’s number, the number of new cases in the community has increased from 324 cases in the week before to 1,056 cases in the past week. We are likely to continue to see high number of cases in the coming days as we step up efforts to detect them to contain their spread in the community. The number of unlinked cases in the community has also increased from 24 cases in the week before to 136 cases in the past week.
The 7-day moving average number of all linked community cases and all unlinked community cases are 131.4 and 19.4 respectively.
Bukit Merah View Market & Food Centre Cluster Closed
The two new clusters are linked to Cases 65893 and 65846, each of which has three infections.
It wasn’t all bad news, though. Three old clusters were closed as there have been no new infections linked to them for the past 28 days, or two incubation periods.
The three clusters are linked to the:
- 115 Bukit Merah View Market and Food Centre cluster
- 119 Bukit Merah View cluster
- Case 64394 cluster
Yes, after weeks of being our biggest active cluster with 94 infections, the Bukit Merah Market cluster has finally been closed.
