Starting today, there will be temperature and visual screening at Changi and Seletar airports for inbound travellers and crew arriving on flights from places which may be exposed to the risk of mpox outbreaks.
The Ministry of Health said there are no direct flights between Singapore and any mpox-outbreak country to date. As at Aug 22, 13 confirmed cases of mpox have been detected this year, all of which are of the less severe Clade II infections. There have been no mpox Clade I cases detected in Singapore to date.
The prevailing precautionary measures to detect and manage mpox cases remain unchanged – travellers are required to report mpox-related symptoms and travel history through the SG Arrival Card.
