Life After COVID-19

April 30, 2020

You may not feel it now, but the world is recovering. Days at home seems like eternity, that has no end. We have been resisting the spread of the virus and at some places of the world the fight is still going on. The great news is this will finish soon. And yes, the world will never be the same. It will be better.

While progress on the fight against COVID-19 continues, some of the countries are expected to ease restrictions gradually in the coming weeks. UAE and in particular, Dubai is re-opening malls, auto showrooms gradually. Still keeping mandatory face masks and hand protection, and restricting the time for every visitor for no more than 3 hours per day. Dubai allowed cafes and restaurants to resume business, shopping malls to be opened partially, while also resuming public transportation services including subways.

For the long time, all visitors must adhere to the new social norms of today. It means they have to “ensure” a physical distance of at least two metres from others at all times. Another rule is to use plastic cards instead of paper money – this understandingly will help to stop the spread of virus. Visitors to the mall above 60 years and children between 3 and 12 years will not be permitted until the threat minimizes. And all mall visitors will have their temperature screened prior to entering the mall.
