DUBAI EASING COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS A SIGN OF RENEWED CONFIDENCE: Dubai announced on Monday that it will ease the restrictions that had been imposed in order to counter the COVID-19 pandemic, with strict adherence to all precautionary measures that are in place. As part of the relaxed measures, live entertainment at hotels, restaurants and pubs, award ceremonies, community sports events and gala dinners will be allowed with immediate effect, while occupancy at hotels have been increased to 100 per cent of their capacities. This easing of restrictions is yet another example of how well Dubai and the UAE have battled the pandemic and have ensured safety for its residents and visitors over the last several months. As entertainment and leisure activities resume, residents and visitors must do their bit to ensure they comply with the safety measures at all times and without any exception.
