To 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 Department of Health - Abu Dhabi, in partnership with relevant entities, is launching a comprehensive sanitization programme of the Musaffah area from May 9th, while providing free Covid-19 tests for all workers living there.

Free transportation to and from testing centres will be provided to streamline testing processes. Moreover, Intensive awareness programmes will be offered in targeted languages, in order to increase awareness of preventative and precautionary measures.

The sanitization and testing campaign will be conducted in targeted blocks, and in gradual phases, with daily commercial activities continuing as usual. 

There are currently three massive testing centres in Mussaffah where more than 120,000 workers have been tested so far. 

No disruptions to daily commercial activities are expected. However, entry and exit to the area being sanitized will be restricted.

The duration of sterilization in each block depends on its size and the number of people being tested.
