Compulsory testing ordered for 20 places

The government on Thursday issued a compulsory testing notice ordering people who have visited 20 specified premises to undergo Covid-19 tests.

“In view of a number of cases tested preliminarily positive / positive, 20 specified places are included in the compulsory testing notice,” health officials said in a statement.

They urged members of the public to go for tests on time, adding that officials will also visit the affected premises to notify residents.

They said the compulsory testing also applies to people who are fully vaccinated.
