2 of them are work pass holders, and 2 others hold a Dependent’s Pass and Long-Term Visit Pass respectively.

The last 2 are a Singaporean and PR.

All of them were put on Stay-Home Notices (SHN) upon arrival in Singapore, so the risk of transmission to the community is low.

No need to avoid locations

MOH will have notified close contacts of the cases.

However, as a precaution, visitors of the locations are advised to monitor their health for 14 days from the date of visit.

You’re advised to see a doctor and let them know about your exposure history if you start having symptoms of acute respiratory infection, or a loss of sense of smell or taste.

There’s no need to avoid the locations, as management will have cleaned and disinfected the premises.

We hope that those infected will recover speedily.
