The UAE announced Wednesday it had given nearly 10 million vaccine doses, equal to one for every resident, after warning that those who remained unvaccinated would face restrictions on their movement.
The United Arab Emirates has mounted an energetic coronavirus vaccination campaign for its citizens as well as the foreigners who make up the majority of the population.
However, daily infection rates remain high after it became one of the first destinations to reopen to tourism last year, making it a magnet for visitors from all over the world, and being hit with a spike in cases afterwards as a result.

SVG Eruption and Evacuation Underscore Rapid-Response Caribbean Solidarity
Share this post:
The eruption of La Soufriere volcano in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) last Thursday was long-awaited and expected, but its effects could not have been predicted, ash clouds flying high and spreading as far as Barbados.
The evacuation was planned and though initially chaotic, improved with time and better management.
Following the Red Flag from The UWI’s Seismic Research Centre (SRC), national emergency units in neighboring islands (like Saint Lucia’s NEMO) sprang into action advising residents about how to protect themselves, while Health authorities also had to prepare for arrival of evacuees.
