Have you been dying to get a haircut for the longest time? It’s no surprise that there’s been long queues of people lining up at the nearest barbershop outlet.
Barbers and hair stylists were finally allowed to resume business on Wednesday (10th June) under the recovery movement control order (RMCO). However, word has it that a barber had contracted Covid-19, 2 days after opening.
Titiwangsa Health Centre has since asked the building’s local management office to carry out a full sanitisation process especially in the elevators (where the barber lives) in block B. The barbershop owner, who is Malaysian, together with those in close contact, have been instructed to get a swab test to determine if they have Covid-19.
The barbershop’s logbook containing customers’ details has also been brought in to carry out contact tracing. The foreigner barber is still awaiting his diagnose result.
Update (12th June, 9pm):
Attached below is the official notice from KL Trader’s Square and the confirmation from the Ministry of Health.
