2021-11-29 Update on COVID-19 situation (29 Nov 2021):
The New South Wales Ministry of Health has confirmed that two travellers who arrived in Sydney from southern Africa on Singapore Airlines SQ211 on 28 Nov had tested positive for the Omicron variant of concern. The travellers departed from Johannesburg on 27 Nov via Singapore Airlines SQ481 and arrived at Changi Airport on the same day for their transit flight. Their pre-departure tests in South Africa on 26 Nov were negative for COVID-19 infection.
Most of the travellers had remained in the transit area at Changi Airport until their departure for Sydney on 28 Nov, and did not enter Singapore or visit other areas in Changi Airport. Seven disembarked. Six are currently on 10-day Stay-Home Notice (SHN) at a dedicated facility and will be PCR tested. One was a close contact of an infected individual on the flight, and has been quarantined. Contact tracing is ongoing for airport staff who may have come into transient contact with the cases.
