Anyone who suffers from symptoms / Covid-19 / must either contact the helpline on 16000 or go directly to one of the designated health centers to undergo the necessary checks: Muaither centers, kindergarten, Umm Salal, or Al Gharafa health. This is important because the sooner the disease is discovered, the easier it will be to get the correct treatment and recover from it.
