Those who had been identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would already have been notified by MOH.

As a precautionary measure, people who were at these locations during the specified timings should monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit, said MOH.

“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,” said the ministry.

There was no need to avoid places where confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been, added MOH. The National Environment Agency will engage the management of affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.

On Tuesday, Singapore reported 11 new COVID-19 infections, including two cases in the community.

Both community cases were linked to a 15-year-old student at a private school who was reported as a case on Monday.

There were also four imported infections, all of whom were placed on stay-home notice upon arrival in Singapore, and five cases in migrant worker dormitories.
