SINGAPORE: Four students and one non-teaching school staff member are confirmed to have contracted COVID-19, after they were tested as part of the Ministry of Health's extended surveillance testing.
They are from five different schools - Anglican High School, CHIJ Katong Convent, CHIJ St Theresa’s Convent, Geylang Methodist Secondary School and Hwa Chong Institution. “The evidence suggests that they were likely infected during the end of the circuit breaker period, and not after school reopening.”Speaking to reporters, Mr Ong said that the five individuals were tested again on Saturday, and all the tests were negative.
Contact tracing and investigations are ongoing, said MOE. Twenty-nine staff members and 100 students who were in contact with the confirmed cases in school have been issued a 14-day leave of absence or home quarantine order.
What is low viral loads? Please dont come up with seemingly 'safe' terms to cover something up
MOE, the arbiter of truth in healthcare and medical science, implied that low viral loads means not transmittable... hmmmm
Well done. If they are likely infected during the CB, question is how when they are supposed to stay home during CB

Confusing article.. Low viral loads means? Not transmissible.. Another type of covid19 mutation...?
