- Singapore’s health ministry confirmed 942 new coronavirus infections on Saturday, a new daily record, taking the total number of COVID-19 cases in the city-state to 5,992. The vast majority of the new cases are of “work permit” holders living in foreign worker dormitories, the health ministry said in a statement on Saturday.
What? natashya_g reyaika
Cases in Rússia okay?
Singapore delayed the lockdown. Now paying the price.
“But the disease is spreading rapidly within the large migrant worker community, highlighting what rights groups say is a weak link in containment efforts. Authorities have ramped up testing for the disease in the dormitories.“
Very surprising data quote. Even though we all know that Singapore is one of the countries with the best health facilities and strict rules that apply to its citizens. This time it was also blown away by a pandemic storm.
Masks anyone
That is concerning. Singapore has the best healthcare system in the world. This jump is not good news.
