The UAE Ministry of Health and Prevention on Sunday reported 725 cases of the Covid-19 coronavirus, along with 2,391 recoveries and one death.

Over 133.8 million PCR tests have been conducted in the country so far.

Total active cases stand at 53,932.

The new cases were detected through 338,195 additional tests.

The total number of cases in UAE as on February 20 are 874,607, while total recoveries stand at 818,381. The death toll now stands at 2,294.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson intends to set out plans next week to remove self-isolation requirements for people infected with Covid-19, his office said on Saturday.

Britain would become the first major European country to allow people who know they are infected with Covid-19 to freely use shops, public transport and go to work — a move many of his health advisors think is risky.

“Covid will not suddenly disappear, and we need to learn to live with this virus and continue to protect ourselves without restricting our freedoms,” Johnson said in
