A mega facility that can house up to 15,000 Covid-19 patients and foreign workers is being set up at Tanjong Pagar Terminal, as the number of coronavirus cases continues to increase.

According to local news, Singapore is building the structure as part of a “broader plan” to ensure adequate space to meet future demand. The facility will be used to accommodate foreign workers who are suspected Covid-19 cases, or are infected, recovering or have fully recovered.
