All hospitals in Abu Dhabi's Al Dhafrah region are now free of Covid-19 cases. The emirate's media office tweeted on Saturday that the hospitals continue to provide "specialised and full healthcare services to patients".
The media office attributed the achievement to the "consistent efforts of the healthcare sector". It said mass testing for Covid-19 as part of the National Screening Programme has helped "drastically reduce the number of cases requiring medical care".
The Covid-free healthcare facilities in Al Dhafra are: Madinat Zayed, Ghayathi, Dalma, Al Sila, Al Marfa, Liwa and Ruwais hospitals.
This is the latest in a series of Covid-free hospitals announced in Abu Dhabi.
On Friday, Abu Dhabi's Department of Health announced that Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City and Al Ain's Tawam Hospital had discharged their last Covid-19 patients.
The Adnec field hospital and Mediclinic facilities were also declared Covid-free last week.
