The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China sent a statement to Brazil with a new protocol for disembarking ship crews in Chinese ports.

According to the statement, in order to avoid complications on the arrival or disembarkation of the crew at their ports, shipping companies must do PCR nucleic acid testing on crew members 3 (three) days prior to their shift and boarding of the vessel bound for China, allowing only those who test negative to enter. On ships with confirmed cases of Covid-19, this test must be extended to the entire crew.
