Authorities in Abu Dhabi have updated the procedure to enter the Emirate from within the UAE. EDE scanners will be used to scan people at entry points, effective from Sunday, December 19.
EDE scanners use advanced technology to rapidly detect potential Covid-19 cases without storing personal information. Potential positive Covid-19 cases will be referred to an on-site testing centre, where they will be given a free antigen test, and results within 20 minutes.
