The authorities said the patient will be transferred to the Communicable Diseases Center at Tan Tock Seng Hospital for treatment and isolation3 to minimize the chances of being bitten by mosquitoes and spreading the infection in the community.

MOH is screening the patient's household members. They have been advised to monitor their health and seek medical treatment if unwell. MOH and NEA will also actively4 alert residents in the vicinity to seek medical attention if they develop symptoms of fever and rash.
