Jurong Point, FairPrice in Aljunied among places visited by Covid-19 patients
Jurong Point and a FairPrice outlet in Aljunied were among the places visited by Covid-19 patients while they were still infectious, said the Ministry of Health (MOH) yesterday.
MOH provides the list of locations that infectious Covid-19 patients visited for at least 30 minutes, and the times they visited them to get people who were at those places at the same time to monitor their health closely for two weeks from the date of their visit.
The full list of locations and times can be found on the gov.sg website.
The ministry has said that close contacts would have been notified and there is no need to avoid these places as they would have been cleaned, if necessary.
Singapore confirmed four new cases yesterday, taking the total to 57,915.
All four, aged between 18 and 41, were imported cases comprising one Singaporean, one permanent resident, one student's pass holder and one special pass holder.
Three of them had returned from India while the fourth returned from the Philippines.
