SINGAPORE (ANN): Three cases of locally transmitted Zika virus infection in Singapore have been confirmed in Hemsley Avenue in Serangoon Gardens, in the first cluster here this year, said the National Environment Agency (NEA).
"Residents and stakeholders are urged to maintain vigilance and continue to eliminate mosquito breeding habitats, as there could still be asymptomatic or mild, undiagnosed cases which might result in further transmission of the virus if there are mosquitoes in the vicinity," added NEA in a statement on Friday (Sept 13).
