UAE To Bring Back Nightly Curfew If COVID-19 Cases Continue To Spike Within The Country<\/em><\/p>\n With COVID-19 cases seeing a major spike in the country for five days straight, it has been reported that the UAE – as a contingency – may reinstate the country-wide nightly curfew (locally referred to as the National Sterilisation Programme) within the country once again.<\/p>\n A recap of last week’s coronavirus numbers (Aug 16 – Aug 22):<\/p>\n The Minister of Health and Community Protection Abdul Rahman Al Owais, has remarked on the influx of coronavirus cases by calling it an “alarming increase”.<\/p>\n The\u00a0National Sterilisation Programme was initially launched on\u00a0March 26, 2020, to curb the spread of the novel virus when it was at its peak. During this 3-month long programme, the UAE gov arranged thorough\u00a0sterilisation of all public facilities including public transportation, parks, streets, alleys and other public areas.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We stress the importance of following precautionary measures. The first of which is physical distancing and avoiding visits and gatherings, which may be a primary factor in any increase in the number of cases.#CommitToWin<\/a> #\u0646\u0644\u062a\u0632\u0645_\u0644\u0646\u0646\u062a\u0635\u0631<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/HprdJmsBqs<\/a><\/p>\n — NCEMA UAE (@NCEMAUAE) August 20, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
