SINGAPORE: Singapore reported 19 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday evening, two fewer than what was reported in the Ministry of Health's preliminary update.
Fifteen imported cases were reported on Thursday, all of whom were placed on stay-home notice upon their arrival in Singapore. The remaining four cases are special pass holders who are crew members of a ship. They arrived in Singapore from Malaysia on Sep 23 but did not disembark. The four subsequently reported symptoms and were swabbed while on the ship, where they remained until their test results came back positive for COVID-19. They were then taken by ambulance to the hospital.
Those who have been identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would already have been notified by MOH. The Ministry of Manpower announced earlier on Thursday that 342 workers living at Space@Tuas dormitory have been moved to a government quarantine facility after a new COVID-19 case was detected on Monday.
