Those identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would have already been notified by MOH.

Individuals who were at these locations during the specified timings should take precautionary measures to closely monitor their health for 14 days from the date of their visit, and see a doctor if symptoms of acute respiratory infection (such as cough, sore throat and runny nose) develop, as well as fever and loss of taste or smell.

There is no need to avoid places where there have been confirmed cases of COVID-19 as the National Environmental Agency will engage the management of affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.

There were 21 new community cases reported in Singapore, with a new cluster linked to a Marina Bay Sands Casino dealer. 

Three more people have also tested preliminarily positive for the same variant — a 37-year-old Singaporean teacher at Frontier Primary School, a 16-year-old Singapore Polytechnic student, and a 49-year-old Certis Cisco aviation security officer at Changi Airport Terminal 3.

A 20-year-old full-time national serviceman had also tested positive for COVID-19 on May 17. The SAF has carried out immediate and thorough disinfection of the premises the serviceman had been in.

Four more cases have been linked to the Changi Airport Terminal 3 cluster, which currently has 78 cases, the biggest active cluster in Singapore.

There were also 11 unlinked cases. 

With the increase from 32 cases in the week before to 149 cases in the past week, citizens are encouraged to stay at home as much as possible and limit outside activities.
