There are 35 Singaporeans in Wuhan who are in touch with Singapore’s Foreign Ministry.
They are all well, MFA said in a statement on Saturday (Jan 25).
All Singaporeans currently in China are advised to register with MFA so that they can receive updated information and consular assistance where necessary, the ministry added.
Singaporeans should avoid all travel to Hubei province in China, including its capital city of Wuhan from where a virus outbreak that has killed more than 40 people originated from.
