A Security Guard Working At 3 Damansara Tested Positive For COVID-19

In a statement on Facebook, 3 Damansara said the security guard was confirmed positive for the virus yesterday, 11 October.

"Mall employees who have had close contact with the said employee have tested negative for COVID-19," the mall said.

"Per the Ministry of Health guidelines, these employees will continue to remain in self-quarantine for 14 days and undergo another round of test (sic) to ensure their health before returning to work."

The mall added that as a precautionary measure, high-contact surfaces, such as lift buttons, handrails, and toilets, have been coated with an anti-microbial disinfectant.

"The health and safety of our tenants, vendors, shoppers, and employees are our utmost priority," 3 Damansara continued.

"We will conduct another round of deep cleaning and thorough sanitisation of the public areas within the mall and office tower after closing hours tonight, 11 October."

3 Damansara is located at the intersection between SPRINT Highway and Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP) in Petaling Jaya.

At the time of writing, MySejahtera COVID-19 hotspot tracker indicated that the area around SS20 — where the mall is located — has reported COVID-19 case(s) within a 1km radius in the last 14 days.
