An 11‑month‑old infant who was due for her measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine the following month has been confirmed to have measles.

The preschool has notified parents of children who had been in close contact with her.

Measles spreads easily through coughs, sneezes, and contaminated surfaces. Watch for symptoms such as fever, cough, runny or stuffy nose, watery eyes — these usually appear about 10 to 12 days after exposure.

If your child develops symptoms, keep them home and seek medical care promptly. Our Paediatric Urgent Care Centre is open every day, including weekends, to assess your child and guide you on the next steps to take.

This is the fifth measles case involving an infant below 12 months of age in 2026, the Communicable Diseases Agency said.

Healing doesn’t begin or end at the hospital doors. It starts in the weeks of preparation before admission and continues through the steady work of recovery after you return home.

These in-between stages are often when stress peaks, especially if you’re unsure what your insurance covers.

When you have the clarity of knowing you are supported from the first scan to the final check in, you can stop second guessing every appointment and start focusing on your recovery.

We are deeply saddened by the recent accident involving one of our patients at Pasir Ris.

Our thoughts are with her and her family during this difficult time. We thank the medical team who acted swiftly to provide care and support.

The family is currently appealing for eyewitnesses who may have dashcam footage of the accident. If you were in the area and may be able to assist, please reach out through the channels shared in the news.

Wishing Qisya a smooth and speedy recovery. 💙

No one helped the teen so she went to her school's general office to seek assistance for her injuries.

With 3 Nipah virus cases reported overseas and the rise in measles cases in Singapore, it’s a timely reminder of the role vaccines play in disease prevention — and the importance of vigilance and preparedness when vaccines aren’t available.

In this fact sheet, we highlight key diseases that already have approved vaccines, alongside those that don’t. Which ones were you already familiar with?

If you’re unsure which vaccinations may be relevant for you — especially if you’re travelling soon — speaking to a doctor can provide clarity.

Remember when you could sit for hours or walk all day without your back, knees, or shoulders complaining? 😅 If you’ve stepped into 2026 with new or lingering aches and pains, it doesn’t mean you have to simply “live with it.”

Hazy skies and a burnt smell lingered over the past few days — and many of us noticed. While the 24-hour Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) remains in the good to moderate range, NEA warns that winds from the north may still carry smoke from vegetation fires in Malaysia.

If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as coughing or a runny nose — common reactions to haze exposure — try to stay indoors and keep well hydrated.

If pre-existing conditions worsen (such as asthma attacks or eczema flare-ups), or if you experience dizziness or chest tightness, please seek care promptly at our 24-Hour Urgent Care Centre.

Do note that there may be a 1–3 day delay between haze exposure and symptom onset*, so continue to monitor your health and look out for your loved ones.
