The close-knit dragon boat community here is rallying behind a 61-year-old athlete from American Dragons Singapore (ADS) who was confirmed as Case 233 for the coronavirus on Monday.
The British national, who is a Singapore long term pass holder, is an imported case as he had been in the United Kingdom from March 7 to 14. He is warded in an isolation room at the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID).
