Christmas and the New Year are approaching. As the global pandemic situation of COVID-19 is still unstable, in order to lower the risk of infection, all of you are reminded to continue to pay attention and implement the preventive measures and guidelines advised by the Macao government, as well to avoid going to overcrowded places. In addition, students and staff who have already left Macao should pay attention to the local and Macao disease control policies, as well as the responsibilities of taking nucleic acid tests and medical observation when returning to Macao.
