Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA) stated that if the test result shows that a nose swab is required, it will be done right away and the customer will need to isolate himself until the result is out.
Drive-through screening centres in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain will operate Saturday to Thursday from 8 am-8 pm, while the Northern Emirates locations will be open seven days a week from 10 am- 8 pm.
