Singapore reported 63 new Covid-19 cases as of noon on Sep. 10.

Two are in the community and six are imported infections.

A total of 56 of the cases were asymptomatic and were detected through proactive screening and surveillance.

Community cases

One of the community cases is a Singaporean man who is linked to three imported cases who are his family members.

The three family members had returned from India and were serving their stay-home notice at a dedicated facility.

The 36-year-old man was identified as Case 57312 and he stayed with his family even though he did not travel out of the country.

MOH said: "While Case 57312 had not travelled overseas with them, he had requested to take care of his spouse and young children at the SHN facility and was isolated with them from Aug. 24."

The other community case, a work permit holder, is currently unlinked.

The 33-year-old Chinese national's infection was detected as a result of rostered routine testing of workers in the construction, marine and process sectors living outside dormitories.

Imported cases

The six new imported cases had returned from the UAE, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Russia and the Philippines.

They were all placed on stay-home notices upon their arrival in Singapore.
