SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Retail stores visited by a group of Chinese tourists linked to the nation's first local cluster of coronavirus infection appear to have been hit by the outbreak.
Four of the six places visited by the tour group during their stay from Jan 22 to 23 were shuttered when The Straits Times visited them on Thursday , while the other two were deserted.
ST observed masked security personnel conducting temperature checks on all visitors outside the building entrance. When asked about the closure of the jewellery store in the building, a security staff member declined to comment. She had also taken the group to Yong Thai Hang, a Chinese health products shop in Lavender, whose two employees also contracted the virus.
A DFS spokesman shared that DFS had"temporarily closed the store for professional deep-cleaning and decontamination" after MOH confirmed that the tour group visited the departmental store during their two-day stay.
