Better health, better wealth.

Litter can become potential mosquito breeding habitats.

Let’s #KeepSGClean and mozzie-free by binning our litter properly! If a bin is full, hold on to your litter until you find a bin that you can use!

NEA and MOH are closely monitoring Boon Lay Place for potential Zika virus transmission.
 
One Zika case was reported in Dec 2023 at Boon Lay Place. No further cases have been reported since then, but persistent Zika virus signals have been detected in mosquito and wastewater samples , suggesting potential Zika transmission in the area (shaded pink in image). 
 
We advise residents in the area, especially pregnant women, to protect themselves from mosquito bites and to monitor their health closely. More information at: go.gov.sg/zika-feb2024

Did you get it right? The correct answer is:

☁️ Cumulus clouds appear as white, fluffy clouds that float across the sky on a sunny day.
☁️ Stratocumulus clouds appear as grey or whitish sheets. They have a definite structure in the form of rolls or clumps.
