Some colleagues went to Candy K-Bar together, got infected with COVID-19, and started a cluster with their other coworkers that didn’t go to the bar. What a mess, right?
Candy K-Bar, located at Somerset Road, has been ordered to close for 20 days following a slew of COVID-19 breaches.
Dart Games, KTV Systems, Group Sizes Above Five, and Alcohol After 10:30PM
The bar had allowed a social gathering above the permitted group size (which is the aforementioned group of colleagues), thus flouting COVID-19 regulations. They also sold and allowed consumption of alcohol past 10:30pm.
Candy K-Bar also provided dart games and a KTV system to customers, which is not permitted under COVID-19 regulations.
As for the infected colleagues, they went on to infect at least 10 other coworkers who didn’t go to the bar. The Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) stated that further investigations are being conducted.
