BORDER control measures are being tightened in light of the deadly new strain of Swine flu that has already killed more than 80 people in Mexico.
In a joint press statement with the Civil Aviation Authority issued on Sunday, the Ministry of Health said that as of 11pm on Sunday, all passengers arriving from the United States would be screened by thermal scanners that would check their temperature before they underwent immigration checks.
From 8am on Monday, thermal scanners will be deployed at the arrival halls of Terminals 1, 2 and 3 to screen all arriving passengers.
