UAE adjusts to a new normal amid pandemic

During the holy Muslim month of Ramadan, Dubai lifted a weekslong quarantine order, saying it had detected no new Coronavirus cases there for two days.

UAE is slowly opening up as people in masks and gloves now go to the mall. Barber shops have also reopened, with scissors and hair clipper attachments individually sterilized and wrapped like surgical tools.

Biosecurity checkpoints stationed everywhere that spray people with disinfectant or have them walk through a box of grey decontaminant gas like an airlock aimed at killing traces of the virus on people’s clothes or their body.

A famed Irish company chain in the city-state opened its main location in Dubai’s Jumeirah Lakes Towers on Friday, but it committed to closing early, before a 10 p.m. nightly curfew.
The company announced in a statement that it’s complying with the guidance from local authorities.

“The health and safety of our customers is the priority – from temperature checks to social distancing of tables, sanitization of the venue and all other regulations,” it said.
