Marina Barrage, Wisma Atria & a popular heartland mall for Easties, Kallang Wave Mall, have been added to a list compiled by Ministry of Health (MOH) in a major update on Thursday (9 Jul).
Over 20 more visits paid by an unstated number of confirmed Covid-19 were added in yesterday’s update.
We summarise other notable & new entries below.
An interesting part of Thursday’s (9 Jul) update involves repeat visits paid to My Kampung at Kallang Wave Mall — most of which happen during a 12.30-1pm window, and 5.30-6pm.
Here are other respective mall visits added to MOH’s entries — including Sim Lim Square & Bugis Junction.
Malls
Locations of malls are generally spread out across Singapore, with Jurong Point & IMM being in the West, and central malls like Wisma Atria at the heart of town.
A driving centre & places of interest like Marina Barrage were visited by Covid-19 cases over the course of the last 2 weeks as well.
Places of Interest & Driving Centres
This could be attributed to Phase 2’s permission of social visits in under groups of 5. However, MOH & NEA have stated that there’s no need to avoid these areas as they’ve been sanitised accordingly.
F&B establishments & supermarkets make for a sizeable part of the update too — including fastfood chains like Novena’s Jollibee outlet, and Old Airport hawker centre.

Supermarkets
As dine-ins are allowed in Phase 2, patrons are reminded to wear their masks after meals are complete as a precaution.
Visitors should also take previous advisories to avoid peak crowds to heart. We can all try to be efficient with our travels outdoors, only heading out when necessary.
The list of entries on MOH’s list denoting the places visited by Covid-19 cases have expanded considerably — with 90+ entries in total since 25 Jun.
This could be chalked up to Singapore’s move to Phase 2, and upcoming Phase 3 regulations.
However, MOH & NEA have stated that there’s no need to avoid these areas as they’ll be properly sanitised and sterilised after declarations.
The reason for listing these places is to facillitate contact tracing efforts. You can view Annex C3 of MOH’s 4.5 page list here in full.
If you or your loved ones have been in the vicinity of these areas at the similar times, do monitor your health for 14 days from the date of visit.
Respiratory symptoms like runny nose, cough, fever should also be declared to your doctor accordingly.
As Phase 2 goes on, we should continue to stay vigilant and use SafeEntry while observing safe distancing & mask regulations where possible.
