By now, you should know that there’s a COVID-19 cluster at a Seletar Aerospace Heights construction site, limited to the sites at 8 and 12 Seletar Aerospace Heights.
The project site is for an expansion of the Singapore Service Centre of Canadian aviation firm Bombardier.
Five Bangladesh nationals who are infected with COVID-19 are being linked to the site, and since 9 February 2020, construction works at the site have been halted.

The infected workers are all with a subcontractor (a major construction site will have many subcontractors to work different parts of the project).
