The Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Manpower have apologised for informing a migrant worker that he had tested positive for Covid-19 only three weeks after he was swabbed, citing an"administrative error" while he was tested.

But there was no impact on the"appropriateness of the clearance strategy" for Toh Guan Dormitory - where the worker was staying with 11 roommates - or the treatment and care of all the workers there, the ministries said in a joint statement yesterday. The ministries were responding to media queries over Facebook posts made by Ms Tsjin Chandra Dolly and Ms Kelly Soh last Wednesday. The Straits Times understands that Ms Tsjin, Ms Soh and the worker belong to the same company.

In their separate posts, Ms Tsjin and Ms Soh said the worker was informed only last Monday that he had tested positive for Covid-19. The worker had undergone the swab test on June 22, Ms Soh said. Both women said they were told by MOH last Monday that the ministry required 24 hours to arrange for the worker to be moved out of the dormitory room. But nothing was arranged by last Wednesday and the worker continued to stay in the same room with his 11 roommates, they said.
