Abu Dhabi’s Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee announced COVID-19 guidelines during Eid Al Adha celebrations.

The committee also urged those attending public Eid prayers to avoid gathering, shaking hands, or offering greetings in the traditional manner before or after the Eid prayer.
These categories can attend public Eid prayers:
-
Those with chronic illnesses or respiratory symptoms
-
Individuals living with patients undergoing Covid-19 treatment as well as those living with someone in contact with Covid-19 patients.
