SINGAPORE - An 88-year-old Singaporean woman, who was part of the recently-announced Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) cluster, died of Covid-19 on Saturday (May 1).
The Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Saturday night the woman, case 62573, had been warded in Ward 9D from April 14, and was confirmed to have Covid-19 on April 28.
She had a history of cancer, hypertension, congestive cardiac failure, stroke and hyperlipidaemia.
The National Centre for Infectious Diseases has contacted her family and is extending assistance to them.
Separately, the Ministry of Education (MOE) said that Edgefield Secondary School (EFSS) will shift to home-based learning (HBL) next week, after one of its students tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday (April 30).

All schools should be closed from Tuesday.
Case 62686 is a 22 year-old female Malaysia national who works as a spa therapist at Spa 9 (41 Holland Drive).
She developed a runny nose on 28 April and sought medical treatment at a General Practitioner clinic, where she was tested for COVID-19. Her test result came back positive the next day. Her serological test result has come back negative, indicating that this is likely a current infection.
Got special?Her case is classified as unlinked, but I bet you that one of the previous confirmed cases is linked to her, but he has not been honest during contact tracing. And MOH must have "forgotten" to check his trace together app or token.

Taking temperature is a joke.Plain and simple- if the patient is asymptomatic, does taking temperature be of any use?
