Singapore is planning to nearly double the number of designated facilities for close contacts of Covid-19 cases if needed, in preparation for a possible surge in infections due to the Omicron variant. There are 14 active designated facilities as of Wednesday (December 22), and the Ministry of Health is looking to convert an additional 12 designated facilities over the next month, if required. These facilities will be able to accommodate up to 11,000 people in total.
