Students in Sharjah, Ajman and other northern emirates, now have access to free PCR testing.

The Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA) has allocated centres where students can take the nasal swab test at no cost.

Prior appointment is not required for students.

The screening centres are open from Saturday to Thursday from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm and on Friday from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm.

Abu Dhabi recently announced a free vaccination drive for students across all government and private testing centres until the end of September.

This announcement comes soon after local authorities announced a reduction in PCR testing prices at AED 50 across the board.
