The community case is a 66-year-old woman who works as a cleaner at the transit area of Changi Airport Terminal 3. She is currently unlinked to previous cases, and was detected through the authorities' bi-weekly routine testing of workers at the "frontlines of COVID-19 operations".

"Her serological test result is negative, which indicates a likely current infection," said MOH.

There were eight imported cases, all of whom were all placed on stay-home notice or isolated upon arrival in Singapore.
