SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): The Ministry of Health (MOH) will stop issuing daily Covid-19 updates to the media from Tuesday (Dec 7), although the information, including infection numbers, deaths and intensive care unit (ICU) occupancy rates, will still be available on its website.

Several experts agree with the move, saying the information provided daily does not mean much at this stage of the pandemic, when Singapore is transitioning to treating Covid-19 as endemic.
