The Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre states that in order to provide convenience for citizens to undergo sampling and minimize cross-district movements, a mobile NAT sampling vehicle, equipped with 4 sampling desks, has been put into use from 9:00am this morning (27 June) under the present Citywide Nucleic Acid Testing Programme. During the first stage, it provides sampling service at various residential areas in Coloane. Residents in Coloane can refer to the service schedule below and have samples collected at the nearest location without making prior appointment.

As of 1:00pm today (27 June), a total of 534 persons have been sampled in the mobile NAT bus; operation is smooth and orderly.

Parking arrangements for the mobile NAT bus are as follows:

The Centre reminds members of the public that, before going to the mobile sampling vehicle to get tested, they must first perform a rapid antigen test (RAT) by themselves at home. Do not proceed unless the result is negative. Upon boarding the mobile NAT bus, present a health code containing a RAT negative result or a photo showing a RAT negative result; otherwise, such boarding would be denied.

If the RAT result is positive, regardless of whether you have fever, respiratory symptoms or other discomfort, you should call an ambulance (Tel: 119, 120 or 2857 2222) in addition to reporting it through Macao Health Code. The declarant and the co-living individuals must stay home and wait patiently for being transferred to the quarantine site by the designated ambulance.
