Appropriate measures are taken based on the data collected which reflects the high flexibility required for the nature of the current situation.
• The decline in the number of infections means the gradual return to normal life, economic and tourism activity in a broader way, and the return of employees to their workplace, which achieves the concept of coexistence with the virus and enable humanity to beat the pandemic.
• The UAE is considered one of the “safest tourism destinations”, as we have witnessed an increase in internal and external tourism due to the set of precautionary and preventive measures.
