China forcing anal swab COVID tests on many foreign travelers
China has made its headline-grabbing anal swab test mandatory for many foreign travelers arriving in several major cities in the country, according to Chinese state media on Tuesday.
China’s Global Times reported several Chinese cities, including Beijing, Shanghai and the port city of Qingdao, are requiring the invasive anal swab tests in a wide range of cases. Global Times reported the test entails inserting a cotton swab from three to five centimeters long (about one to two inches) and rotating it for 10 seconds.
Chinese medical workers will also test travelers with the nose and throat swabs on the third and seventh day after arrival and use the anal swab test on the 14th and 21st day after arriving in Beijing.
