USS & Lucky Plaza Among Places Visited By Covid-19 Cases While Infectious

Universal Studios Singapore & Lucky Plaza Visited By Covid-19 Cases, Says MOH

As the economy reopens, the Singapore Tourism Board is working hard to attract visitors back to attractions like Universal Studios Singapore (USS).

Of course, the risk of getting visitors with Covid-19 also increases, as we found out from the Ministry of Health (MOH)’s updated list of places visited by Covid-19 cases on Wednesday (2 Sep).

MOH added about 14 places, including several malls in Orchard, as well as Sentosa and USS.

Read on to look at the added places.

No need to avoid locations

MOH assures that there is no need to avoid the locations, as they’ve been cleaned and disinfected.

As a precaution, those who visited the locations at the same time should monitor their health for 14 days from the date of visit.

We wouldn’t fault you if you perhaps chose to stay away from tourist attractions for a while, though.

However, given there are safe management measures in place, the only cause for concern would be if there are a spike in cases relating to certain locations.

 

This hasn’t happened — yet. Hopefully not.
