The UAE reported 338 new coronavirus cases on Monday, taking its overall tally to 888,067.
No Covid-19-related deaths were recorded for the 14th day in a row.
Only one fatality has been announced in March. The death toll since the virus arrived in the UAE is 2,302.
Another 899 people overcame the virus, taking the recovery total to 859,116.
The latest infections were detected as a result of an additional 251,465 PCR tests.
More than 145 million tests have been conducted to date.
The daily caseload has declined steadily in recent weeks, having topped 3,000 as recently as January.
Authorities have eased some Covid-19 restrictions and the wearing of masks outdoors is now optional across the Emirates. But face coverings must still be worn at all times when indoors, except when in one’s own home.
Border control rules were lifted last month, meaning motorists and passengers entering Abu Dhabi from other emirates no longer have to show green status on their Al Hosn app.
EDE scanners, which can detect signs of infection, were also removed from checkpoints.
Unvaccinated people in Abu Dhabi can now enter public buildings such as malls and hotels on presentation of a negative PCR test result issued in the past 48 hours.
The Abu Dhabi Emergency Crisis and Disaster committee announced last week it had updated the rules for unvaccinated people entering events, tourist attractions and cultural sites.
Previously, authorities in Abu Dhabi said unvaccinated people could enter only supermarkets and pharmacies.

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

Nepotism is the name of the game
Salman Khan’s father, Salim Khan, is one of Bollywood’s most legendary screenwriters. Through his partnership with co-writer Javed Akhtar, Salim is credited with having paved the path for the Indian film industry’s blockbuster format in the 1970s. Something his son now rules the roost of. More importantly, the Salim-Javed duo also created the persona of the “angry young man” for Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the 1970s, reflecting the angst of the average Indian. In choosing to be the ordinary man’s “hero” as opposed to a thespian in new Bollywood, Salman Khan remains tightly linked to his father’s oeuvre. Thanks dad.
