Free Covid-19 testing for all Musaffah area workers to be provided, with daily commercial activities continuing as usual.
The Department of Health – Abu Dhabi, in partnership with relevant entities, will launch a comprehensive sanitisation programme of the Musaffah area from May 9 and provide free Covid-19 testing for all workers living there.
The campaign, which was announced in a series of tweets by the Abu Dhabi Government Media Office, will ensure the provision of healthcare services to all sections of the community, and regulate and manage Covid-19 testing to ensure the health and safety of those living in Musaffah.
The tweets said: “Free transportation to and from testing centres will be provided to streamline testing processes.
Intensive awareness programmes will be offered in targeted languages, in order to increase awareness of preventative and precautionary measures.
The sanitisation and testing campaign will be conducted in targeted blocks, and in gradual phases, with daily commercial activities continuing as usual.
Entry and exit will be restricted while the area is being sanitised.
“The duration of the sterilisation of each block depends on its size and on how many people need to be tested.
No legal action will be taken against those violating visa regulations.
“Protecting the community’s safety and curbing the spread of coronavirus is the top priority.”
