Macau.- Macau’s Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre has ordered everyone living in Macau to take a rapid antigen test (RAT) every three days <\/strong>starting today. It seeks to detect any unidentified Covid-19 cases as a precaution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In recent days, the city has recorded several positive Covid-19 cases identified as close contacts of a taxi driver, whose infection had been confirmed on Monday (November 28). Earlier this week, authorities ordered table game dealers, security and cleaners<\/a> to undergo nucleic acid testing and a rapid antigen test every four days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Up until and including December 7<\/strong>, all people crossing between Macau and Zhuhai must carry a negative nucleic acid test certificate issued in the previous 24 hours. The requirement had been due to expire today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
