Any person who had been present at the specified place during the specified period is also required to undergo a COVID-19 nucleic acid test.
The updated compulsory testing notice is available on the website of the Centre for Health Protection of the Department of Health via the following link: www.chp.gov.hk/files/pdf/ctn_20220512.pdf.
