Latest updates on the coronavirus

Case numbers have dropped consistently this month, from 1,812 on July 3, to fewer than 1,400 since Monday.

On Thursday, the UAE participated in a Covid-19 global action plan meeting to discuss the fight against the coronavirus.

The online meeting was organised by Japan and the US. More than 30 countries and several international organisations took part.

They discussed mechanisms for the global distribution of vaccines, improving supply chains, supporting and protecting health care workers, and strengthening the global health security framework.

The UAE said it will continue to support international humanitarian work to provide solutions to curb the spread of the virus.

The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.

How to wear a kandura

Dos

  • Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion 
  • Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
  • Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work 
  • Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester

Don’ts 

  • Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal 
  • Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying
