JEM in Jurong.
SINGAPORE – JEM and Westgate shopping malls will be closed to the public for two weeks from Sunday (23 May) to break any potential chain of transmission of COVID-19.
The malls will also be deep cleaned and are due to re-open on 6 June.
In a press release on Saturday, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said that as part of its investigations into cases of infection among individuals who worked in or visited JEM and Westgate, it is extending free COVID-19 testing to all visitors to both malls from 10 to 14 May. Currently, it is conducting special testing operations for those who visited the malls from 1 to 10 May.
"Our epidemiological investigations have found that there is likely ongoing transmission among individuals who visited these malls," the ministry said.
There are 10 recent cases linked to the malls, of whom four were detected from the testing operations so far.
"All visitors to JEM and Westgate since 10 May are advised to monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit. They are encouraged to visit a Regional Screening Centre or 'Swab and Send Home' (SASH) Public Health Preparedness Clinic for a free COVID-19 test if they feel unwell," the MOH added.
Members of the public will still be able to access Ng Teng Fong General Hospital through Westgate, and the office towers at the premises will remain open.

Both the malls are quite literally linked (JEM indirectly) to the hospital.

Well done to those who thought blurring the lines between retail and healthcare would be a good idea.

If masks work why does a MALL have the capability of transmitting a virus.

Good question.... ask Trump...

If masks work why does a MALL have the capability of transmitting a virus.

Actually close better. This kind of half fuck lockdown leaves the economy in vegetable state. Just close and cut costs

 

[syed putra]

Lockdowns will not solve the problem.

SINGAPORE - Jem and Westgate will be closed from Sunday (May 23) for two weeks for deep cleaning after investigations found that there is likely ongoing transmission among visitors to the two malls in Jurong East.

The closure aims to break any potential chain of transmission and enable deep cleaning of the premises, said the Ministry of Health (MOH) on Saturday night. The malls will reopen on June 6.

Members of the public will still be able to access Ng Teng Fong General Hospital through Westgate and the office towers at these premises will remain open.

All visitors to Jem and Westgate since May 10 are advised to monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit. They are encouraged to visit a Regional Screening Centre or “Swab and Send Home” (Sash) Public Health Preparedness Clinic for a free Covid-19 test if they feel unwell.

In total, there were 22 new cases of locally transmitted Covid-19 infection, with 15 linked to previous cases. Among them, 12 have already been placed on quarantine. There are no new cases in the dormitories.

Two 19-year-old Singapore Polytechnic (SP) students were among the new community cases, adding to the four SP cases that were earlier announced.

The first new case is a second-year student from the School of Computing who works part-time as a food processor at Sats Food Services. He tested positive for Covid-19 during quarantine as he has been identified as a household contact of a previous case, a 49-year-old woman who works as a factory operator at SMS InfoComm.

The second new case is a third-year student from the School of Chemical and Life Sciences. She was last on campus on May 15, when she met a fellow SP student who was announced as a Covid-19 case last week.

SP said the two had met for a co-curricular activity (CCA) and had dinner together outside of school. All other students who had met for the CCA on May 15 have been quarantined by MOH.

The linked cases include a 24-year-old Malaysian man who works as a delivery rider for IVIC Logistic and McDonald’s at Pasir Ris Elias Community Club. There are currently a total of three McDonald’s delivery riders who have tested positive.

There were also seven imported cases, who had already been placed on stay-home notice or isolated upon arrival in Singapore.

Overall, the number of new cases in the community has increased from 103 cases in the week before to 199 cases in the past week, MOH said.

The number of unlinked cases in the community has also increased from 14 cases in the week before to 61 cases in the past week.

MOH added that 35 more cases of Covid-19 infection have been discharged from hospitals or community isolation facilities.

There are currently 255 confirmed cases who are still in hospital.

Of these, most are stable or improving, and five are in critical condition in the intensive care unit.

Another 235 are isolated and cared for at community facilities.

There have been 32 deaths here due to complications from the coronavirus.

I thought all everyone had to do was wear a mask. Why is it necessary to close a whole mall?
