The UAE records highest amount of COVID-19 recoveries in a single day

While the daily coronavirus case numbers have been slightly increasing in the UAE over the last month, the highest number of COVID-19 recoveries in a single day have just been recorded.

On Sunday, it was announced by the Ministry of Health and Prevention that 2,443 COVID-19 cases have fully recovered – this takes the total amount of recoveries in the UAE to 66,095.

No new deaths have been reported either, which means the country’s death toll to date remains at 388.

Meanwhile, a further 513 people had tested positive for the virus, meaning the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases to date is 73,984.

These figures come after it was recently reported that there have been some changes made to the self-isolation process for those who test positive for COVID-19 in Abu Dhabi.

According to a report by , anyone who tests positive for coronavirus in the emirate must now self-isolate in a healthcare facility which includes designated hotels and hospital.

Self-quarantine was previously allowed in the UAE capital, but this is no longer the case. Anyone who tests positive for COVID-19, even if they appear to be asymptomatic, is now required to be admitted into a healthcare facility.

“The Home Isolation Programme has been discontinued late in August,” Dr Shada Al Ghazali of the Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre told The National. “All Covid-19 cases are isolated in assigned isolation sites and, or hotels.

“This is in line with the emirate’s strategy to control the spread of COVID-19.”
