ISETAN : Three Employees Positive For COVID-19!

On 11 January 2021, ISETAN announced that 3 employees at their KLCC and Lot 10 stores tested positive for COVID-19.

• 7 January 2021 : 1 promoter from First Floor of ISETAN KLCC tested positive
• 9 January 2021 : 2 promoters from Lower Ground Floor of ISETAN The Japan Store at Lot 10 tested positive

All 3 cases were identified as “external infections”, and they were placed under quarantine.

Despite the cases being identified days ago, ISETAN only announced them today.

They did not close ISETAN KLCC or ISETAN The Japan Store, but announced that they have already sanitised and cleaned both outlets.

 

ISETAN COVID-19 Exposure : Official Statement

Here is the official statement by ISETAN on the COVID-19 exposure at their KLCC and Lot 10 stores.

 

ISETAN COVID-19 Exposure : What’s The Risk?

As the affected employees are customer-facing, there is some risk to customers who interacted with them.

However, the risk is minimised if both the affected employees and customers wore face masks properly, maintained physical distance, and practised good hand hygiene.

They will definitely be tracing contacts, and those identified as close contacts will be asked to self-quarantine and get tested.

This case reinforces the importance of contact tracing, as well as the MySejahtera mobile app which logs the movements of its users.

While shopping malls and all other public premises offer physical logbooks, we highly recommend that you use MySejahtera, because it allows for easier and faster contact tracing.

Using MySejahtera also obviates the need to sign a physical logbook, which usually means using a shared pen – an unnecessary risk factor.

COVID-19 is easily destroyed by soap, so even a simple cleaning operation will definitely clean the stores of any infectious particles, albeit only temporarily.

 

COVID-19 : How To Keep Safe!

Here are a few simple steps to stay safe from COVID-19 :

• Avoid suspected cases or disease hotspots, like hospitals, if possible!
• Avoid public events and crowds
• Keep our hands clean with soap or hand sanitiser
• If you need to wear a surgical mask, make sure you put it on and remove it properly!
