根据新加坡卫生部文告,截至本日(24日)本地新增49起武汉冠状病毒(COVID-19)确诊病例,多达32人都是返国的公民或长期准证持有者。

其中25人是新加坡公民,至于其余五位是长期准证持有者。14人曾前往英国、五人曾前往美国,其他人士则曾造访过马来西亚、法国、印尼和澳洲。

至于17名新增确诊病例,其中13人未曾到过境外,也与此前病例没有关联,当局仍在调查追踪他们曾接触的人士。

这意味着,本地迄今为止累计确诊病例已增至558例,死亡病例两例,仍有17人病重病患需待在加护病房。迄今累计治愈病例多达156人。

昨日,卫生部通报本地确诊病例多达54例,且48名确诊病患都属输入性病例。这些确诊者分别到过英国、马来西亚、荷兰、爱尔兰、印尼、美国、法国、瑞士等地。

27日起   执意出国者若确诊将不受津贴

相信是有鉴于仍有许多入境病例,当局决定,从本周五(27日起),执意在疫情期间出国的本地居民或长期准证持有者,若返回新加坡后14天内确诊,住院将不受津贴。
