SINGAPORE: Around 30 locations have been added to a list of places visited by COVID-19 cases in the community during their infectious period, the Ministry of Health said in its daily update on Thursday (Jul 9).
The locations include a driving centre, malls and food and beverage outlets visited by the confirmed cases between Jun 25 and Jul 7.
One location, the My Kampung food court at Kallang Wave Mall, was visited on eight occasions between Jun 30 and Jul 7. CNA has asked MOH and My Kampung to clarify if the food court was visited by one person or multiple persons during their infectious period.
The new locations and their respective addresses are as follows:
Those who had been identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would have been notified by MOH.
As a precautionary measure, those who had been at those locations during the specified timings should monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit, the health ministry added.
"They should see a doctor promptly if they develop symptoms of acute respiratory infection (such as cough, sore throat and runny nose), as well as fever and loss of taste or smell, and inform the doctor of their exposure history.
"There is no need to avoid places where confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been," MOH said.
The National Environment Agency will also engage the management of affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.
Singapore reported 125 new COVID-19 infections on Thursday.
Twenty-one of the new cases reported on Thursday were community infections, of which 11 are currently unlinked. One case is imported and the remaining cases were work permit holders residing in foreign worker dormitories.
