The Health Ministry said that people who were identified as close contacts of confirmed cases have been notified by the ministry.
As a precautionary measure, people who were in those places during specified times should monitor their health closely for 14 days from the date of their visit, the ministry added.
“They should see a doctor immediately 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 history of exposure.”
The Health Ministry said it is not necessary for people to avoid places where COVID-19 cases have occurred and that the National Environment Agency will hire the management of the affected facilities to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.
Singapore reported 49 new COVID-19 cases on Wednesday, including three in the community and three imported infections.
The ministry also announced that it removed 41 COVID-19 cases from the total count after subsequent investigations showed them to be negative.
