PM Lee said just now :
"...first-degree close contacts of coronavirus cases are being isolated and tested immediately. But their family members will be isolated only if the close contacts test positive.
In future, household members of close contacts will also be notified to isolate themselves immediately, a change from the previous approach.
If the first-degree contact later tests negative, his household members will be released from isolation.
Mr Lee said: “If the first-degree contact tests positive, we will have saved precious time by isolating his household members earlier.
“This more aggressive approach will help us to shut down clusters more quickly.”
So if you have a big household, it means household lockdown and everyone in household served with SHN order?
