There are no cases residing in dormitories today.

c) Imported cases: 3

Amongst the 3 imported cases,

• 2 (Cases 63919 and 63926) are Singaporeans who returned from India and the Philippines.
• 1 (Case 63925) is a Short-Term Visit Pass holder who arrived from the Philippines for a work project in Singapore.

They had all already been placed on SHN upon arrival in Singapore and were tested while serving SHN.

Case 63925 is a 38 year-old male Philippines national who arrived from the Philippines on 23 April 2021 for a work project in Singapore, and served SHN at a dedicated facility until 7 May. His pre-departure test taken in the Philippines on 22 April, on-arrival test in Singapore on 23 April, as well as his swab done on 6 May during SHN, were negative for COVID-19. He is asymptomatic, and was detected when he was tested for COVID-19 on 29 May, and his test result came back positive on 30 May. His Ct value was very high, which is indicative of a low viral load, and his serology test result has also come back positive. Given that these indicate likely past infection, we have classified the case as imported based on his travel history. He is likely to be shedding minute fragments of the virus RNA, which are no longer transmissible and infective to others.
