Kuwait and Qatar citizens have been advised to avoid travel to Singapore due to coronavirus
Kuwait issued its advisory, urging citizens already in Singapore to “leave rapidly and abstain from staying except for compelling reasons”, after Singapore raised its Disease Outbreak Response System Condition (Dorscon) level to Orange, said the report.
Both Qatar’s foreign affairs ministry and the Kuwait embassy urged its citizens to wait until the situation returns to normal before traveling to Singapore.
Singapore is now the country with the highest number of coronavirus cases outside of China, with 45 infected people.
