By order of the Ministry of Health and Prevention and the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority, in order to maintain public health and safety, these categories of community representatives should refrain from visiting shopping areas where there is a danger of contact with a large number of people. The ban applies to visits to shopping malls, supermarkets and cooperative societies. Also, children and the elderly cannot visit retail stores located outside shopping centers.
Such measures were taken in connection with the resumption of the work of shopping centers in the UAE. Their functioning during a pandemic should be subject to a number of rules and be as safe as possible for visitors and workers. Protecting the most vulnerable segments of the population is one of the measures to ensure public safety.

Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2, also known as COVID-19) is a new strain of coronavirus which is causing illness in humans and animals. Most people infected with the COVID-19 coronavirus will feel mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without any special treatment. Older people, as well as those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, cancer or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness, and require immediate assistance. Novel Coronavirus was first identified in a cluster with pneumonia symptoms in Wuhan city, Hubei province of China, quickly spreading around the world. On early March 2020, the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic had officially started, becoming the defining global health crisis of our time. Today, it is the greatest challenge people have faced since World War II, worsened by subsequent lockdowns of whole countries, collapse of entire industries, and a major economic recession.
