If you were at any of the locations during the specified timings, you should monitor your health closely for 14 days from your date of visit as a precautionary measure, MOH advised.

There were 31 new COVID-19 cases reported on Wednesday. Of these, 29 were imported, with two in the community. 

One of the community cases is a 24-year-old man who works at Crowne Plaza Changi Airport and had preliminarily tested positive for the new B117 virus strain, which was first discovered in the United Kingdom. 

MOH added that the man’s serological test result has come back negative, which indicates that this is likely to be a current infection.
