The Ministry of Health and Medical Services has announced that three of its staff who are part of the operations in the COVID-19 Incident Management Team have tested positive for COVID-19 which has also resulted in the secondary contacts, including the Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong, Doctor Aalisha Sahukhan, and Doctor Jemesa Tudravu, also taking precautionary measures and working from home.

The Health Ministry says the primary contacts of the three staff have been identified and safely quarantined.

This has led to the stand-down of all personnel who were operating from Level 3 at the Ministry of Health and Medical Services Headquarters at Dinem House in Toorak.

The Health Ministry is also informing the public that the Permanent Secretary will be issuing daily statements during this period and will provide updates on the COVID situation from the Ministry of Health as and when required.
