Pause
0 Local community cases
There were no reports of community cases yesterday. It's a reprieve and a
first for Phase 2. Nonetheless, other incidents such as the continued
discovery of Covid19 cases in FW outside of dorms and the high Dengue cases
around Singapore threatens the state of health in Singapore.
1) 249 New Cases
229 Dorms
15 Community (3 Work Passes, 12 Work Permit)
5 imported cases
The good news for today is that the numbers in dorms were not as high as
anticipated and there are no SC or PR cases in the community.
The bad news is that FW outside of dorms is increasingly becoming worrisome
with the daily occurrence of new cases detected mainly through proactive
testing. It is not speculative to conclude that the spread of Covid19 would
have reached this group.
Testing is necessary for those workers working in places that had confirmed
Covid19 cases. It should also be necessary for their close contacts in other
sectors. Given that the FW outside of dorms are not quarantine, the community
would be at risk of exposure from this group.
2) Apple Store, Singapore pools outlets among places visited by Covid19
cases

3) Private Home Sales doubled
Reopening of show flats, low-interest rates cited as reasons for jump despite
the threat of recession.
4) 1678 dengue cases last week
370 active clusters mostly in the East. A total of 17,249 people as being
infected. Dengue is posing a higher risk for the local community than covid19.
5) Students Plead guilty of spitting over Bugis Junction Mall
Railing.
The offence by the 18-year-old was committed during Dorscon Orange. With
incidents like this, is it still justifiable to push election age to 18?
6) Redeveloped Marina Bay Floating Platform to have water sports centre,
NS Themed gallery
Renovation scheduled to start on March 2022. So it means that NDP and River
Ang Pow will need a new location.
