MOH said the prevailing COVID-19 vaccines in the national vaccination programme continue to offer good protection against severe disease.

It added that the number of hospitalisations and new intensive care unit admissions from COVID-19 in Singapore remains stable.

The first local case infected with the subvariant was detected on May 5., indicating that it should be more closely watched than others because of mutations that might make it more contagious or severe.
