Summary of trends for local cases6. Overall, the number of new cases in the community has increased from 324 cases in the week before to 1,056 cases in the past week. We are likely to continue to see high number of cases in the coming days as we step up efforts to detect them to contain their spread in the community. The number of unlinked cases in the community has also increased from 24 cases in the week before to 136 cases in the past week. The 7-day moving average number of all linked community cases and all unlinked community cases are 131.4 and 19.4 respectively.

Annex A for the affected markets and food centres.
Collection of ART self-test kits for visitors to selected markets and food centres 9. MOH is investigating cases of COVID-19 infection involving markets and food centres which are likely seeded by fishmongers who visited Jurong Fishery Port to collect their stock and sell at the markets and food centres. As an added layer of ringfencing to help to identify cases and prevent further transmission, MOH is working with the People’s Association to distribute antigen rapid test (ART) self-test kits to individuals who had visited selected markets and food centres in the last 14 days, such as residents living in the vicinity of these centres. The collection will run from 26 to 27 July 2021 at Residents’ Committee Centres in the vicinity of the following locations:
• Geylang Bahru Market and Food Centre (69 Geylang Bahru); and
• 146 Teck Whye Avenue Market (146 Teck Whye Lane).
10. Eligible persons are strongly encouraged to collect and perform self-testing using these ART kits. Please refer to
https://www.gowhere.gov.sg/art to check on the nearest Residents’ Committee Centre for self-collection.
