Yesterday, we saw the lowest turnout in term of cases since 10 May 2021. With just 13 cases, 7 of which were community cases, we pray that things will remain this way.
Fortunately, they did.
As of 12pm today (5 Jun), the Ministry of Health (MOH) has preliminarily confirmed 18 new cases of COVID-19 infection.

He last attended school on 18 May 2021.
On 2 June, he began going through a fever, sore throat and body aches, and sought treatment at a General Practitioner (GP) clinic on 3 June.
It was there that he underwent an antigen rapid test (ART) and a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, with the former testing positive.
He was instantly isolated.
Later on, his PCR test would also test positive, though his serology test result remains unclear.
