SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Some 357 patients who had previously been diagnosed with Covid-19 received an SMS message wrongly sent by the Ministry of Health (MOH) last Saturday (May 16) informing them that they had once again tested positive.
The ministry said this was caused by an IT system testing glitch during its efforts to increase the system's efficiency. It sent a follow-up message to all recipients within three hours, clarifying the mistake and apologising for the inconvenience and anxiety caused.
