Universal Studios Singapore, Hard Rock Cafe in Resorts World Sentosa and Ikea Tampines were visited by infectious Covid-19 patients, said the Health Ministry yesterday.

Supermarkets such as Giant Hypermarket in Tampines and newEcon - Top Choice Supermarket at 84 Bayshore Road were also added to the list of places visited by Covid-19 patients while they were infectious.

The ministry provides the list of locations that infectious Covid-19 patients visited for at least 30 minutes and the times they visited them to get people who were at those places at the same time to monitor their health closely for two weeks from the date of their visit.

Meanwhile, two new cases in the community were announced yesterday. Both did not show symptoms when they were tested during quarantine and were household contacts of two patients previously reported separately on Monday and Sunday.

One is a seven-year-old male pupil at a private school, while the other, a 42-year-old woman, is a housewife. The ministry did not say which school the boy attended but said he was last in school on Sept 18.

Both had been placed on quarantine on Saturday but had not left their home since last Monday.
