For precaution, those who have visited the aforementioned locations during the specified timings must monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit.

With 77 entries since 1 Jul, MOH’s list likely won’t stop growing. The only thing we can do is take precaution and try to stay home as much as possible.
While we are undoubtedly happy that we have the freedom to dine in and hang out, let’s not forget that we’re still living in a pandemic crisis.
So do adhere to safe distancing, and take care when you’re leaving the house.
