National Sterilisation Programme timings revised for Ramadan

The UAE has revealed that timings for the ongoing National Sterilization Program will be adjusted for the Ramadan season that’s expected to begin on April 24.

A report from WAM states that Ministry of Health and Prevention, as well as the National Authority for Emergency and Crisis and Disaster Management, have revised the new timings which will be from 10:00 pm to 6:00 am, adjusted by two hours from the previous timing schedule of 8:00 pm to 6:00 am.

During the national sterilization drive, the public is only allowed to head outside of their homes to purchase essentials, get medicine or get emergency medical treatment.
