She also highlighted that the new variants tend to spread faster and are more infectious, but they don't appear to be causing a more serious disease or a higher mortality rate.

The Ministry of Health urged all UAE residents aged 16 and over can to book their appointments for free COVID-19 vaccinations at any of the 205 designated vaccination centres.

However, residents should still book appointments prior visiting a vaccination centre unless they are from the vulnerable categories who can get the vaccine on a walk-in basis.
