the main section itself says "may", "outbreak" and suspected "outbreak" already.
statue are made easy to understand, you don't have to read the whole act to make out of it, other than the interpretation.

"may" does not signify obligation.
anyway,no one doubt the investigation power of the authority.
but the topic is on whether the test is anonymous or not. so far, nothing can be found that one "must" furnish particulars when one is tested positive.

As for laws of Singapore.  Anyone who wish to debate or have doubts in translating/understanding whats written in the Singapore Statues, can always check with the AGC. 
The aim of reporting INFECTIOUS DISEASE is to effectively monitor/surveillance/quarantine/control/prevent the spread of INFECTIOUS DISEASE. 
One must try to understand the whole ACT which covers/interlink the various aspect of INFECTIOUS DISEASE. |
