Airports In Abu Dhabi Launch Free & Rapid COVID-19 PCR Test

All the travellers travelling to Abu Dhabi will be offered a free COVID-19 PCR test, the results of which will be given in about 90 minutes. This service is going to be available  24 hours a day and every day of every week. You will receive your test results via WhatsApp or SMS and they will be available on the Al Hosn App as well.  If the result comes out to be positive, the person would be fitted with an electronic wristband and will have to stay in quarantine for ten-days and get tested again after ten days.
