Gan Kim Yong statement in parliament 4 May 2020:

"I thank Dr Chia Shi-Lu for his concern on the infection rate among our healthcare workers. As of 26 Apr 2020, there were 66 cases of confirmed COVID-19 infection among healthcare workers. 46 cases were from healthcare workers whose work involve direct contact with patients. Based on the investigations thus far, there are no established epidemiological links of a healthcare worker being infected in the line of duty for caring for their patients, except for one case in a private healthcare institution where we are unable to rule out a possible link between the doctor and a COVID-19 patient. Our healthcare workers have taken an extra level of care at their workplaces to protect themselves and their families. The recent National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) study also did not detect any past infection among a sample of healthcare workers. Nevertheless, we cannot be complacent. We have reminded our healthcare workers constantly that they should take adequate precaution during their work to protect themselves, their patients as well as their family members. In the event that our healthcare workers fall ill, we will ensure that they are well taken care of and our healthcare institutions will provide them with the necessary support."

I hope GKY uses his common sense and realises that 46 cases of front line health care workers involving direct contact with patients are very likely to have got the virus from these patients.
