Singapore reports 38 new local COVID-19 cases, highest in months

All primary, secondary and junior colleges will shift to full home-based learning from Wednesday until the end of the school term on May 28.

On Sunday, Singapore confirmed 38 locally transmitted COVID-19 cases, the highest daily number since mid-September, of which 18 are currently unlinked. "The sharp rise in the number of community cases today requires us to significantly reduce our movements and interactions in the coming days," Chan added.

Though Singapore's daily cases are still only a fraction of the numbers being reported among its Southeast Asian neighbours, infections have been increasing in recent weeks. From Sunday, the government implemented its strictest curbs on gatherings and public activities since a lockdown last year.
