SINGAPORE – A Malaysian man is among the 33 new imported Covid-19 cases here, said the Health Ministry.

The 31-year-old is a work permit holder, it said in a statement last night.

The ministry said the man and 30 others are asymptomatic.

“They were all placed on the stay-home notice (SHN) or isolated upon arrival in Singapore, and were tested while serving the SHN or under isolation.”

The latest cases bring the republic’s coronavirus tally to 58,662.
