Abu Dhabi recently updated its procedures for positive COVID-19 cases and close contacts. If you receive a positive PCR test result and are in a high risk category (you have symptoms, have a chronic disease, are aged 50 and older or are pregnant) you’re required to visit a Prime Assessment Center for medical assessment and isolation procedures.

If you receive a positive result but aren’t part of the high-risk category, you are instructed to retest at any health facility in Abu Dhabi and to isolate. If you then test positive, you will need to take another PCR test in 24 hours, and if that test is also negative you will no longer need to quarantine.
