The mall was visited by a COVID-19 community case linked to the Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) cluster on May 1, between 4.35pm and 5.20pm.
Those identified as close contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases would have been notified by MOH.

If you were at the locations during the specified timing, you should monitor your health closely for 14 days from your date of visit as a precautionary measure, MOH advised.
There is no need to avoid places where confirmed cases of COVID-19 have been as the National Environment Agency will engage the management of the affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.

Eight cases were linked to the Tan Tock Seng Hospital cluster, with five patients who had been warded in Ward 9D and three TTSH staff members having tested positive. This brings the total number of cases from the TTSH cluster to 35.
