The testing will take place at the Al Arabi Sports Club Gate No 4 on Wednesday and Thursday, July 29-30 from 8am to 10 pm.
“A copy of Covid-19 negative test result certificate can be collected from building number 323, second floor at Hamad Bin Khalifa Medical City on July 29 till August 1, 2020,” MoPH said in a post on Twitter.
