Regulatory authorities in the UAE need to take the call, say doctors.
Quarantine is recommended for healthy people who have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2, which causes Covid-19, as it helps to keep the contagion at bay, UAE doctors have said.
They were reacting to the United States’s Centres for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention s announcement that people who have received the vaccine against Covid-19 do not need to quarantine if they are exposed to the coronavirus.
Doctors in the UAE said the announcement cannot be followed in the country without the approval of the regulatory authorities.
