Abu Dhabi starts with a new project to determine residents’ immunity

-

Abu Dhabi is starting off a new study to determine the immunity of its residents to coronavirus. In this first of its kind initiative by the Department of Health (DoH), the study aims to collect the data that will be used for future studies.

In an effort to control the spread of coronavirus and diminish the effects of the pandemic, the study will be focusing on the characteristics of how the pandemic has been moulded in a pattern and will break down the focal points. This will be carried out by taking random samples from across the emirate, the study aims to learn more about Covid-19 immunity and how the virus affected people in Abu Dhabi. The results will be used to inform policies to curb the spread of the coronavirus, reports the National.

It will involve people from various regions to identify the percentage of people who are infected and also this will help determine the science behind people who are testing positive but show no symptoms of Covid.

According to the Gulf news, the project is being carried out by the DoH’s Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre, in collaboration with the emirate’s public health provider, Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (Seha) and the National Reference Laboratory, which is owned by Abu Dhabi Government’s Mubadala Healthcare.

The health experts have appreciated the move and said the test results are sure to work in the favour of controlling the covid spread.

“When you go back and design a return of work policy one of the first thing you do is risk assessments. If you have serology tests then it will tell you the exposure rates of people. Now you will have an educated guess when people are returning to work by identifying the workforce that could potentially be immune,” said Dr Basel Altrabulsi, chief medical officer of the National Reference Laboratory

The study started on July 19 and will reportedly end on August 16.

The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area. However, this recent endorsement—a fact which received little attention—shows that there is now greater strategic flexibility and demonstrates how committed UAE is towards ensuring it stays clear from any possible Chinese influence if it wants to become one of our most reliable partners. The timing for G42’s bold distribution of these Nvidia chips could not be better. With worldwide AI rivalry heating up after the advent...
