All of us have to do our part to keep Singapore safe and get us to the new normal. The recent large clusters from the KTV lounges and Jurong Fishery Port remind us why we must all get vaccinated, especially our seniors who can get seriously ill if infected.
Chong Boon Market at Block 453A Ang Mo Kio Ave 10 is one of 12 markets with confirmed cases, probably linked to the Jurong Fishery Port. The market will be closed for two weeks till 1 August. Everyone working there will be tested and quarantined, to prevent further spread. All visitors to the market since 3 July should monitor your health closely, and see a doctor immediately if unwell.
I know this will inconvenience AMK residents, but please bear with us while we work through this. Also please help update senior residents who may not have heard the news.
The list of affected markets and food centres can be found in MOH’s latest press release (go.gov.sg/ceqc0k). If you went to a KTV lounge, Jurong Fishery Port or any of these places recently, please get yourself tested. Monitor your health, and remain in quarantine or stay home as instructed.
The most important way to keep ourselves safe is vaccinating everyone. We are on track to fully vaccinate 2/3 of our population by National Day. Meanwhile please keep up our regular habits of wearing masks, washing hands and maintaining safe distancing. This will slow down the spread of the virus, and help to bring outbreaks like the KTV and Jurong Fishery Port clusters under control. – LHL
