If you’ve remembered, before August 2020 when daily COVID-19 cases were in three- or four-digits, there have often been a few patients in ICU.
However, since 5 August, as Singapore kept the virus at bay, there hasn’t been any patient in the ICU.
In addition, the last death that’s caused by COVID-19 in Singapore was reported on 14 July 2020.
Now, as we fight to keep our jobs, one patient’s condition has taken a turn for the worse and was placed in ICU.
1st S’pore Patient Admitted to ICU Since 5 Aug
Last night (7 Oct), MOH’s report indicated that there are currently 43 confirmed cases who are still in hospital. Of these, most are stable or improving, and 1 is in critical condition in the intensive care unit..
It’s one of the previously confirmed cases, as all cases reported yesterday were asymptomatic.
In all, 57,612 have fully recovered from the infection and have been discharged from hospitals or community care facilities. 148 are still isolated and cared for at community facilities
For the two community cases reported yesterday, both are household contacts of previously confirmed cases, and were placed on quarantine earlier. One of them is a student in a private school while the other is a homemaker.
More Places Added to List of Places COVID-19 Patients Have Been To
A number of new places were also added to the list of places that COVID-19 have been to, and some include very large places like USS or Ikea Tampines.
Here’s the latest list:
As usual, there is no need to avoid places where confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been. The National Environment Agency will engage the management of affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.
However, people who had been at these locations during the specified timings should monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit. They should see a doctor promptly if they develop symptoms of acute respiratory infection (such as cough, sore throat and runny nose), as well as fever and loss of taste or smell, and inform the doctor of their exposure history.
Alternatively, individuals may access the SafeEntry Location Matching Self-Check service via the TraceTogether App, SingPass Mobile, or at https://wereyouthere.safeentry.gov.sg to check whether they were at these locations during the specified timings, based on their own SafeEntry records.
