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.

Three other Malaysians are among Singapore’s imported Covid-19 cases reported in the past week. – Bernama, January 3, 2021
