Dubai’s Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster Management has laid out a set of guidelines for wearing face masks outside of your home.

You can now remove face masks temporarily in the following conditions:

  • Driving alone or with family
  • Eating or drinking in indoor and outdoor settings
  • Engaging in strenuous exercise
  • Being alone 
  • Swimming or skydiving
  • Undergoing specific medical treatments
  • New mask rules for the office: you don’t have to wear one if you’re alone and not surrounded by others

No more masks required for intense workouts
