- BY SAMIHAH ZAMAN Senior Reporter

Patients and visitors must now present a valid Green Pass to enter public health care facilities in Abu Dhabi.

In a statement, public health provider, the Abu Dhabi health Services Company (Seha), said the Green Pass is now mandatory for all Seha patients and visitors aged 16 years and older, unless they are seeking emergency services or presenting to drive-through testing facilities. This applies to outpatient­s and inpatients, as well as to people seeking to get vaccinated at a Seha clinic.

The Green Pass requiremen­t follows directives by the Abu Dhabi Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee for the Covid-19 Pandemic. The Committee has been implementi­ng a fourpillar strategy to combat the pandemic, with a focus on testing, vaccinatio­n, active contact tracing and safe entry to public spaces.

Other Green Pass zones

The Green Pass is also a requiremen­t to enter many other public spaces in Abu Dhabi, including malls, gyms, cinemas, entertainm­ent and leisure venues, hotels, government department­s, museums, cultural centres, schools, theme parks, and many restaurant­s and cafes.
