UAE GOV: Any New COVID-19 Measures Are Not To Restrict But To Keep The Community Safe
In a string of tweets yesterday, the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA) said that the way the UAE is taking precautions is outstanding and it’s a lesson for us all to follow.
“The UAE’s methodology is a global methodology in dealing with the crisis and it must be taught” said H.E Obaid AL Hassan Al Shamsi, Director-General at the National Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Management Authority.
“The levels of readiness and preparations have been raised since early January”. The first case of the Coronavirus in the UAE was reported by the end of January this year. He added on Sunday that it was possible that the national sterilization program could be put back in some areas if cases of COVID-19 are noted to be increased
