Coronavirus: UAE embassy in Rome urges citizens to postpone travel plans
Avoid visiting areas and locations where cases were detected.
The UAE embassy in Rome has urged all citizens to postpone their plans to the country for their own protection due to the increasing numbers of persons infected with the Covid-19 coronavirus in Italy.
On its official Twitter account, the embassy urged all citizens who are in Italy to follow the health instructions issued by authorities, and to avoid visiting areas and locations where cases were detected.
“In emergencies, please call the embassy in Rome on (00390636306100) or the consulate in Milan on (00393356584064) or the contact center of the ministry on (0097180044444),” the embassy said, asking all citizens to register themselves in the Tawajudi service.
After the Wuhan outbreak, countries have been quick to restrict travel of Chinese nationals into their country to avoid the virus from further spreading. But even those efforts did not prevent the outbreak in countries like South Korean, Italy, Iran, Spain and many more.
