The National Screening Project aims to provide widespread testing across the UAE
The UAE has already completed over one million tests and is one of the world’s top countries for most tests administered.
This centre will increase Abu Dhabi’s testing capacity by 80% and ensure it’s in line with the UAE’s initiative to provide every resident with access to safe screening. The centres will swiftly identify confirmed cases which is critical to lessen the transmission of COVID-19, according to Sheikh Abdullah bin Mohammed Al Hamed, Chairman of the Department of Health, Abu Dhabi.
