In response to this round of Citywide NAT drive, from 9:00 am today (27 June) to 6:00 pm on 28 June, the Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre reminds that, people holding a yellow health code are required to participate in the mass testing drive, and can be sampled at the NAT stations.

For people holding a red health code, they must be sent to the NAT station of Conde de São Januário General Hospital for sample collection. If developing fever, respiratory symptoms or other discomfort, they must be sent by an ambulance to the hospital for medical attention. If tested positive, the individual and the people living in the household must stay home and call 119, 120, 2857 2222 to notify the Fire Services Bureau; the authorities will arrange nucleic acid testing for them as early as possible.

The Centre stresses that, the authorities have fully assessed the risk level of yellow code holders in Macao. In addition to nucleic acid testing as scheduled, the concerned individuals must also comply with measures including departure restrictions, close health monitoring and self-health management in order to reduce the risk of infection within the community. The public do not need to worry.
