Following the disclosure of 4 students from Learning Point tested positive, there is a slew of new cases popping up in Primary schools all over Singapore. Primary school children are not vaccinated and thus are not immune to Covid-19.

The affected schools are as follow

Kong Hwa Primary School

2 new cases, bringing the total up to 4

The 2 cases are close contacts of a confirmed case outside of school
