Sat 4 April 2020 : How many souls inducted as new Coviders?

So late no report means it's a very high number.
Plus yesterday early reporting at 4pm with balance number stuff into today's figures.
So it will definitely balloon, especially local cases linked and unlinked.
 
75 new coronavirus cases in S'pore; 4 new clusters including 3 workers' dormitories and events venue in Geylang

SINGAPORE - There were 75 new cases of Covid-19 infections in Singapore as of noon on Saturday (April 4), with 69 of them being local cases with no recent travel history abroad, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Saturday (April 4).
Four new coronavirus clusters have also been identified. Three of them are dormitories - Sungei Tengah Lodge, Toh Guan Dormitory and Cochrane Lodge II. The other cluster is located at The Orange Ballroom, a wedding venue at Geylang Road.
Of the new cases, only six were imported cases with a recent travel history to Europe, North and South America and Asean.

Forty of the 69 new local cases are linked to previous cases or clusters, while 29 cases are unlinked, and contact tracing efforts are ongoing, said MOH.
The number of new imported cases has continued to be lower than locally transmitted ones prompting new elevated measures.
In a wave of new sweeping measures, the Government implemented a "circuit breaker" to pre-empt escalating coronavirus infections with most workplaces closed from Tuesday and all schools moving to full home-based learning on Wednesday, among other restrictions.


Earlier on Saturday, MOH announced Singapore's sixth death from the virus. The patient, an 88-year-old male Singapore permanent resident, had no recent travel history to affected countries and regions.

He was confirmed to have Covid-19 infection on March 29 and was admitted to the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) a day later.The man was cared for in the intensive care unit since March 30. He developed serious complications and eventually died. He had a history of heart and kidney disease, cancer and diabetes.
He is a locally transmitted case.
 
I wonder they are imposing strict distancing at those dorms. It's the epicenter now!
