The UAE Government has approved the administration of two COVID-19 vaccines in the country.

The Sinopharm CNBG COVID-19 vaccine and the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine are available at various medical centers across the emirates.

Visitors to the COVID-19 vaccination centres are required to register and then undergo a vital checkup, which includes blood pressure, height, weight, and temperature checks. 

Following the examination, they undergo an assessment to confirm their eligibility and are asked to sign a consent form.

The first dose is administered once all the checks are completed. The second dose is given three to four weeks after the first jab.

Sinopharm CNBG COVID-19 vaccine

The registration of the Sinopharm CNBG COVID-19 vaccine follows the success of the Phase 3 Clinical Trials, which began in Abu Dhabi and was overseen by MOHAP and the Department of Health, managed by G42 Healthcare, and administered by SEHA.
