الوصف

Regular quarterly washing of the Bedok hawker centre where one of three tuberculosis clusters were found is taking place one month earlier. Block 216 Bedok is also getting a deep cleansing with hospital-grade treatment. Cleaning ends on 19 May and the centre will reopen on Wednesday. There have been repeated calls urging people to return and patronise the stalls. Noah Kong reports. For more insights on related health concerns, we also spoke with Professor Paul Tambyah.
