Dubai has extended a 24-hours-a-day curfew imposed as part of a sterilization drive to control the spread of the coronavirus by a week, the government said in a Twitter post on Friday. The United Arab Emirates has imposed a nationwide nightly curfew since March 26 for the disinfection campaign, but Dubai on April 4 expanded it within the emirate to a 24-hour lockdown for two weeks. The country on Thursday reported 460 new cases and two more deaths from the virus, taking its tally to 5,825 with 35 deaths. It does not give a breakdown for each of the seven emirates. The Emirates Red Crescent humanitarian organization will "foster and care for" the families of those who have died in the UAE from the COVID-19 lung disease caused by the virus, the federal government said in a Twitter post on Friday. Qatar, which has locked down part of an industrial zone where many migrant workers live and work, on Friday announced 560 new cases, mostly among expatriate workers quarantined due to exposure to COVID-19 cases. That takes the country’s total to 4,663. The health ministry said no new fatalities have been reported, keeping the total at seven. Forty-nine patients have recovered, taking the count to 464.
