Officials said the advisory applies to attendees of wedding events at Chandni Victoria Hall on Sept. 24 and 26.

The venue is located on Drew Road, near Airport Road and Morning Star Drive.

Health officials said all guests should be tested, regardless of their vaccination status.

Those who are not fully vaccinated are required to self-isolate until the end of day on Oct. 6, officials added.

Those who are fully vaccinated don’t need to isolate as long as they don’t have any symptoms, but should continue to follow public health precautions including limiting their contacts while awaiting test results, public health said.

There is no word on how many COVID-19 cases may be linked to the events.
