The UAE government has issued a strict warning for non-vaccinated people in the Emirates.
The health authorities said, “Strict measures are being considered to restrict the movement of unvaccinated individuals and to implement preventive measures such as restricting entry to some places and having access to some services, to ensure the health and safety of everyone.
“We call on the public, both citizens and residents above the age of 16 who did not get vaccinated, to visit the nearest vaccination center and get the vaccine.”
The authorities also said, “We stress on the fact that it is necessary and important that all groups, above the age of 16, eligible for vaccination must get vaccinated in order to reach full recovery and protect society form the mutated virus and prevent serious complications.”

In line with the health sector’s plan to provide the COVID-19 vaccine and to achieve acquired immunity, the focus on the coming period will be in vaccinating everyone.
Authorities said, “Delaying or refraining from taking the vaccine will pose a threat to the safety of society and put all groups, especially those most vulnerable to infection, as it poses a major challenge to the national efforts to recover.”
For individuals with medical conditions, we recommend that seeing a specialist doctor in one of the medical centers approved by health authorities to determine whether vaccination is possible according to the health status of each person.

The Health Ministry said, “We are all responsible towards society and have a role in preserving its health and safety and supporting all national efforts to move towards recovery and to return to normal life and regular activities.
“Your hesitation today is an obstacle to our goals, it puts your family, loved ones and community at risk. Receiving the vaccine will contribute to immunizing and protecting this community from this epidemic. The vaccine is our best means to recover and return to a normal life.”
