Two local Zika cases have been confirmed at Woodlands Street 11 and Street 32, said the National Environment Agency in conjunction with the Communicable Diseases Agency (CDA), in a Facebook post dated June 19.<\/p>\n

Following each case notification, NEA commenced wastewater and mosquito surveillance surrounding the residential areas.<\/p>\n

The agency added that enhanced surveillance has revealed persistent Zika virus signals in the area, which suggests that this is an area with likely Zika transmission.<\/p>\n

Those who show symptoms suggestive of Zika infections should see a doctor early, to be diagnosed and managed accordingly, advised the NEA.<\/p>\n

To find out more about Zika cases, one can go to go.gov.sg\/zikaclusters. They can also go to CDA’s webpage (go.gov.sg\/zika) for Zika symptoms, prevention and treatment options.<\/p>\n
