Just home after passing through CMB on a AUH-CGK run; no restriction on transit pax was in force at CMB yesterday (15-Mar) or outbound on 13-Mar for me (UK Passport holder). There is a physical passport check as well as the temperature screening as soon as off the bus from remote stand or in the jetway if on stand, so if you've been in one of the virus hotspots (e.g. China) they'll nab you. The only difference I saw at CMB between 13-Mar and 15-Mar was an Army chap providing backup to meeting and greeting nurses.
