Covid 19 drinking water advice for community facilities/businesses

23 Apr 2020, 12:00 PM

Due to the lockdown, a number of community facilities/businesses may not have been occupied for a number of weeks.

The Ministry of Health recommends to flush all of your taps/faucets so that the water is clear or appears normal.
