Dubai cultural museums to reopen on Monday

DUBAI: Museums will reopen its doors to visitors on Monday, the Dubai Culture and Arts Authority said in a report from state news agency WAM.
Museums will follow new regulations on coronavirus safety when they start accepting visitors on June 1, such as allowing only 50 percent of their capacity at each time, prohibiting individuals under 12 and above 59 years to enter and capping group sizes at five.
Visitors will also have to maintain a safe social distance of two meters, wear masks at all times and are encouraged to use Nol and credit cards to purchase tickets. Another method to buy entrance permits is online from the At The Top, Burj Khalifa portal, as the two entities entered a partnership.
Meanwhile, museum staff will conduct routine sterilizations and perform thermal screening at entrances.
Dubai has started easing coronavirus regulations on May 27, by allowing more businesses to reopen and operate for longer hours.
UAE’s current COVID-19 tolls are at 32,532 infected people, 16,685 recovered patients and 258 fatalities.
