There were 188 new coronavirus cases confirmed as of Monday noon (Aug 10), taking Singapore’s total to 55,292.
They included one community case, a Singaporean, said the Ministry of Health (MOH) on Monday.
There were also 12 imported cases who had been placed on stay-home notices upon arrival in Singapore.
Migrant workers living in dormitories made up the vast majority of the other cases.
More details will be announced on Monday night.
On Sunday, 175 new coronavirus cases were announced by MOH.
The ministry also said the inter-agency task force had completed the testing of all workers in dormitories last Friday, with some test results still being processed.
Among the new cases announced on Sunday was an unlinked community case, a 57-year-old Singaporean woman.
She was tested for Covid-19 after she sought medical treatment for prolonged acute respiratory infection symptoms, and tested positive last Saturday, said the ministry.
It said epidemiological investigations of the case are in progress, and all identified close contacts have been isolated and placed on quarantine.
