根据卫生部文告,今日增添一名武汉冠状病毒确诊病例,是24岁的新加坡理工大学(SIT)学生(第86起病例);此外今日有多达10人治愈出院,这意味着迄今已有47名病患出院。 第86起病例是我国公民,近期未到过中国,不过与第82起病例(57岁的女公民)有关联。 他在14日出现症状,此后就没有返校,并在16和18日到诊所求医。19日前往黄廷方医院,并立即被隔离,他是在20日中午确诊。 在入院前,大多数时间都待在位于武吉巴督东5道的住家。 他也是理工大学首位感染的学生。据了解该大学今日发电邮告知职员此事,并配合当局进行追踪接触者。跟这名确诊学生有密切接触的职员和学生,都得接受14天缺席假。 据了解该大学目前正放假一周,而确诊学生到过的场所都进行消毒。 卫生部表示,目前仍在接受治疗的39名病患大多情况稳定或有起色,但有五名情况危急,需待在加护病房。 今日出院的病例包括第三例、23、27、50、51、57、63、70、83和84例。 83和84例都是在19日确诊的病患,第83病患是54岁男公民,近期未到过中国,不过常到马国出差。第84起病例,则是35岁女公民,与第66例(28岁男公民,在神召会恩典堂工作)有关联。 至于第三例则是首例病患(66岁武汉男子)的37岁儿子。首例病患已在19日出院。
乌节豪杰大厦命案,再有两名被控嫌犯,26岁的陈云胜和洪大源,控状改为共谋蓄意伤人,目前只有陈显扬仍面对谋杀控状。(部分人名译音) 该起命案发生于去年7月2日,发生在乌节豪杰大厦里,死者是31岁的沙迪斯(Satheesh Noel s/o Gobidass)。 死者当时在二楼夜店疑似和被告们起冲突,遭他们围攻,颈部中刀后逃跑,却最终重伤倒在商场门口,随后被送往陈笃生医院急救,却因伤势太重而回天乏术。 警方于12小时内将七人逮捕归案,分别是陈云胜、陈家兴(26岁)、洪大源、萧玉珍(22岁)、陈显扬、卢文聪(25岁)以及陈洪成(22岁)共6男1女在谋杀罪名下被控。 陈云胜和洪大源被指涉及对沙迪拳打脚踢。洪大源的案子将展延到下月的审前会议,控方或对他提出进一步指控。 若罪成,陈云胜和洪大源可被判最高两年监禁、最高罚款5千元或两者兼施。 这意味着其中六人的控状已减轻,只有陈显扬面对谋杀指控。他被指当天携带了一把可折叠的弯刀。 若谋杀罪名成立,被告可能面对死刑,而在公共场所持有攻击性武器者,则将可能面对不超过三年的监刑,和不少于六下的鞭刑。
