Dear Residents of Rowell Court,

Let me update you on the latest news on COVID-19 in our estate.

There are cases of COVID-19 infections at Block 639 Rowell Rd.

MOH has decided to conduct mandatory swab tests for residents in this block, to ensure their well-being.

The venue for swab testing is at our new Pavilion at Block 636 Veerasamy Rd. The testing exercise is not at the Block 639 void deck as there are other facilities and shops on the ground floor.

Testing hours are from 9 am to 4 pm, 16/7 (Friday) only.

All Blk 639 residents today would have received an SMS from HPB to inform them of their assigned timeslot.

A letter from MOH has also been slotted into all the units in this block by staff and volunteers.

Any visitors (between 30 Jun to 14 Jul) to Block 639 may register for a voluntary swab test.

What else have been done?

Our Town council has cleaned and disinfected the entire Block 639.

On top of that, our Central CDC has earlier added one auto hand sanitiser setup in the lift lobby of all the HDB blocks in the GRC; so this has come in handy.

Residents who need any clarifications, can call MOH at 1800 333 9999 or contact me or the CC.

I will keep you informed of the situation. I will join Block 639 residents at the swab area tomorrow to support you too.

I urge all other Rowell residents to please keep safe and observe all safe distancing measures. Please support our Block 639 neighbours.

Let us do our part to make Kampong Glam safe for all our residents.

Let’s please help and look out for each other during these challenging times.

Take care and warmest regards,

Denise
