MOH regularly updates a list of public places visited by confirmed Covid-19 cases for more than 30 minutes when they were infectious.
More than 20 locations were added into the list on May 19.
Among the new locations include Paragon, TripleOne Somerset, Takashimaya, Peninsula Plaza, Great World City, Changi City Point, IKEA Alexandra, and Rochor Beancurd House.
Here's the full list as of May 19, 2021:
Those who had been identified as close contacts of confirmed cases would already have been notified by MOH.
As a precautionary measure, persons who had been at these locations during the specified timings should monitor their health closely for 14 days from their date of visit.
They should see a doctor promptly 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 exposure history.
Individuals may access the SafeEntry Location Matching Self-Check service via the TraceTogether App, SingPass Mobile, or this website to check whether they were at these locations during the specified timings, based on their own SafeEntry records.
There is no need to avoid places where confirmed cases of Covid-19 have been, said MOH.
The National Environment Agency will engage the management of affected premises to provide guidance on cleaning and disinfection.
