Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA) on Thursday announced that its COVID-19 drive-through PCR testing centre in City Walk, Dubai, would be closed for operations in the coming days.
In this regard, SEHA has called on people to connect with its drive-through centre in Al Khawaneej as an alternative option for PCR testing services. They can book appointments for testing services through the SEHA app.
Earlier in January, SEHA permanently closed its COVID-19 drive-through testing centre in Mina Rashid, Dubai.
Furthermore, there has been an increase in demand for PCR testing at SEHA service centres after Abu Dhabi authorities reduced the cost of PCR tests to only Dh40.
People can access the full list of SEHA testing centres on its website for booking appointments at their nearest location.
The UAE continues to report decreasing daily COVID-19 infections, thanks to the robust response campaign undertaken by the health sector and other relevant authorities to curb the pandemic crisis in the country.
On Thursday, the UAE reported 369 new COVID-19 cases and 1,225 recoveries. With the COVID-19 cases declining in recent days, UAE authorities are easing pandemic-related restrictions across the emirates with the aim of facilitating recovery of key sectors in the country.
Meanwhile, the UAE health sector urges all eligible community members to get their vaccination and booster doses against COVID-19 to curtail the spread of the infection.
