Guests who were staying at two quarantined hotels in Abu Dhabi have been thoroughly examined.

That's according to a statement by the UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP), which denied reports that guests left without being tested for COVID-19. 

Ministry officials confirmed that all precautionary measures were carried out as per international standards set by the World Health Organisation (WHO). 

They have also urged the public to only trust information published in official sources and to avoid misinforming others by spreading rumours.
