Coronavirus: 2 new cases in Singapore, including Certis Cisco staff who had served quarantine orders

SINGAPORE - There are 2 new coronavirus cases in Singapore, the Ministry of Health said on Monday evening , bringing the total number of cases here to 45.Meanwhile, a total of seven have been discharged, MOH added.

MOH has said that for the general public, the risk of infection from transient contact, such as on public transport or in public places, is assessed to be low. Since the first confirmed case of coronavirus in Singapore on Jan 23, several clusters of patients believed to have been infected via local transmissions have emerged, after an initial period where confirmed patients were all tourists from Wuhan, the epicentre of the outbreak.

The other local transmission clusters that have been identified are five people linked to the Life Church and Missions in Paya Lebar, and nine people who are understood to have come into contact with those infected at Yong Thai Hang health products store in Cavan Road, which a tour group from Guangxi visited on Jan 23.

Extra measures to reduce mingling in schools, tighten access to hospitals and limit large events have since been put in place.
