"Panama started accepting tourists since yesterday October 12.
Not all hotels are open though.
An arriving tourist is required to present a negative PCR or Antigen test that was done no less than 48 hours prior to his/her arrival.
A tourist without such test document will be tested in the airport in a fast (Sophia) test that give results in less than 20 minutes.
Tocumen (PTY) airport started operating yesterday in a reduced format attending 80 operations among arrivals, departures and connections.
In recent weeks Panama had around 700 or 800 new cases each day, gradually re-activating work sectors, hopefully we will be able to keep this at bay."
