SINGAPORE – A total of 61 new Covid-19 patients were announced by the Ministry of Health (MOH) on Tuesday (Aug 11), the lowest daily total in more than four months since April 2, when 49 new infections were reported.
Two young children were among the new cases. The first, a one-year-old Singaporean girl, experienced onset of symptoms last Saturday. She was one of two patients in the community announced on Tuesday. Both are family members and were linked to previous cases. They were tested while under quarantine, said MOH.
The other baby was a three-year-old girl, a long-term visit pass holder. The Indian national was asymptomatic when tested, and was one of three imported patients announced on Tuesday.
All three had arrived from India, and had been placed on 14-day stay-home notices upon arrival in Singapore. They had been tested while serving their notices, said MOH.
Meanwhile, Bukit Timah Market & Food Centre, 111 Somerset and a FairPrice outlet at Bukit Panjang Plaza were added to the list of places visited by coronavirus patients while they were infectious.
