JOHOR BARU – Singaporeans entering Johor through international entry points in the state, including the Causeway and Second Link, can be slapped with a “Not to Land Notice” (NTL) if temperature checks show that they have a fever.

State Health director Dr Aman Rabu said temperature checks were being conducted at all international entry points in Johor following the Covid-19 outbreak.

“When a visitor is found to have a high temperature reading, he or she will be referred to a clinic where further screening will be conducted.

“If the person is suspected to have the potential of carrying Covid-19 or have been infected by the virus, they will be referred to the isolation ward in Permai Hospital, ” he said.

Dr Aman said those with a high temperature but were not suspected of being infected would be advised to get treatment at a nearby clinic.

“In cases of Singaporeans with signs of fever, the health department will notify the Immigration Department.

“An NTL will then be issued to the individual by the department, ” he said.
