Iam stopping over in Singapore on route to Australia this July for 4 days with my two kids whom are age 8 and 4, what are the chances of them contracting Dengue Fever? Will a trip to the Zoo and Safari heighten our risk? We are staying in a 4* hotel by the Quey.

Your chances of getting Dengue fever in Singapore are incredibly remote. The Zoo and Safari are clean by even fastidious Swiss standards. Go and have a great time. Just drink bottled water, keep clean hands, and you'll be totally fine. Singapore is a very modern place with high standards of hygiene - dengue is very rare.

Don't bother with the bottled water - Singapore tap water is fine to drink.

Singapore is very clean already compared to most of the other global countries. Its tap water can be drank, you do not even need to boil them. Its food standard is very high. There are really no worries. Rest assured.
