Macau has had no new imported COVID-19 cases for 21 consecutive days since April 8.

The Novel Coronavirus Response and Coordination Centre announced today that one more confirmed novel coronavirus patient has been discharged and transferred to Centro Clínico de Saúde Pública for a further 14-day recovery isolation period.

Macau’s 34th discharged patient – the 22nd confirmed COVID-19 case – is the 44-year-old male Macau resident who came from Ireland on March 21 and arrived in Macau on March 22. He was diagnosed with the coronavirus on March 23.

The patient was in stable condition prior to release from isolation and met the discharge criteria after 39 days of hospitalisation. Macau’s last discharged cases were on April 28.

Macau’s first novel coronavirus case was registered on January 22. Nearly all of Macau’s novel coronavirus cases have been imported, with the second wave beginning March 15.

There have only been 45 confirmed novel coronavirus cases in Macau, with 34 patients already discharged and no deaths.

Macau had its first reconfirmed case on Monday, with the patient remaining at the Centro Clínico de Saúde Pública for further observation.
