The Chinese Embassy in Sri Lanka has suspended Nawaloka hospital as the designated hospital for PCR and IgM anti-body tests.
This measure has been taken after several passengers from Sri Lanka holding the negative reports of PCR and IgM anti-body tests issued by Nawaloka hospital were diagnosed as COVID-19 patients after they entered China, the embassy said in a public notice published on its website.
“In order to ensure the health and safety of all passengers to China, the Chinese Embassy in Sri Lanka will suspend Nawaloka hospital as the designated hospital for PCR and IgM anti-body tests and will not accept the reports of PCR and IgM anti-body tests issued by Nawaloka hospital from July 13, 2021,” the notice stated.
