In the initial phase of H1N1 (2009) outbreak, temperature screening was implemented at the border checkpoints to contain the spread of the virus into the community. As Influenza A (H1N1-2009) has become endemic among global communities, and with localised community spread in Singapore, temperature screening at our borders is now less useful than before there was local community spread. As such, these temperature screening measures at our border checkpoints will be discontinued with effect from Saturday 11 July 2009.
