But even if not for him, I would probably cut down anyway since the numbers are going crazy.\"\nDr Gurvin Gill, 34, who was waiting at a taxi stand at Tampines 1 mall on Friday evening, said over the past three weeks, she has been restricting her movements to just between home and work.\nAesthetician Josephine Teo, 54, said she has stopped dining out with her three children.\nAt Northpoint City in Yishun, ST observed about 300 people shopping and dining from 5pm to 7pm last Thursday. Groups kept their distance from one another while queueing at stores and restaurants.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Covid-19 cluster was detected at the mall in April last year, and was closed two months later.\nRetired technician Ong Guan Leong, 74, who is fully vaccinated and is waiting to receive the SMS invite to get the booster shot, said he still goes to the library at the mall to read newspapers daily.\n\n\n\n\n   Diners seen patronizing at eateries in Jem at Jurong East.

I always make sure we sanitise our hands.\"\n\n\n\nMore on this topic\n\n\n\n        \n      \n\n\n\n\n          Related Story\n         \nPace of reopening amid Covid-19 depends on price S'pore is willing to pay, say experts\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n      \n\n\n\n\n          Related Story\n         \nF&B outlets in CBD hardest hit as people avoid social gatherings\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChong Pang Market and Food Centre was crowded on Friday between 8am and 10am with queues forming at food stalls.\nThe market had shuttered for two weeks in July after being linked to the Jurong Fishery Port and the Hong Lim Market and Food Centre cluster. The cluster was closed on Sept 12 with a total of 1,155 cases.\nMrs Pavani Metikal, 29, a housewife who was passing by the market, said she was more cautious about handling produce.\nShe said: \"I used to touch things more freely when considering whether to buy them, but now I am more careful. I'm already used to cutting down on social activities since the start of the pandemic.\"\nFive park-goers who were at the Botanic Gardens on Thursday evening said they were not overly worried, citing the open space and fewer crowds. Visitors remained in scattered groups of up to five, and many left before 7pm.\n\n\n\n\n   Parkgoers in Botanic Gardens on Sept 17, 2021.

It's open air so I'm not worried about contracting Covid-19 here. I also feel more protected from the booster shot.\"\n\n\n\nMore on this topic\n\n\n\n        \n      \n\n\n\n\n          Related Story\n         \nWho should get Covid-19 booster shots next in S'pore?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n        \n      \n\n\n\n\n          Related Story\n         \nCommentary: S'pore should make Covid-19 jabs mandatory so measures can be eased for all","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":5926004,"gmtCreate":1632091000610,"gmtModify":1634792016006,"authorId":3581895153736016,"author":{"id":3581895153736016,"idStr":"3581895153736016","authorId":3581895153736016,"name":"aibee","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c3a01aa497813f2bf89ee264cf6292ab","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":887404804,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"[强]","text":"[强]","html":"[强]"}],"langContent":"EN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":1073,"commentSize":177,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
