The Macau government has announced that, in light of the growing COVID-19 pandemic in mainland China, anyone entering Macau from the mainland on or after 17 November will be required to take a NAT test on the second day after entry.

According to the government, those who entered from the mainland between 17 and 19 November must have been tested before midday on Monday, otherwise their health code would be changed to yellow.

The mainland pandemic has been rapidly spreading in recent weeks, while Macau is also on high alert after a 60-year-old female visitor from the mainland last week tested positive for COVID-19 and was classified as an imported case.

During her stay in Macau, she visited a number of places, including St Paul’s Ruins, The Venetian Macao, Sands Macao, The Londoner Macao and The Parisian Macao. However, the places concerned were not closed as a result.

The hotel where the visitor stayed in Macau, the Harbourview Hotel Macau was temporarily closed, but the government did not classify it as a red code area.

IAG contacted some hotel staff on Monday, who replied, “We are waiting for the government to inform us.”

The government has revealed that those who stayed or worked at the hotel, or were on site for more than half an hour 15 to 18 November, would need to be tested four times in the next five days.

More than 26,000 new cases were confirmed across mainland China on Sunday, but the vast majority of those are asymptomatic. Among the new cases, there were 9,000 in Guangdong Province and five in Zhuhai.
