The strategy completely builds on the lessons learned during the Covid-19 pandemic when wastewater testing from airplanes played an important role in identifying outbreaks and contamination of their spread. By screening aircraft wastewater officials can track the origins of infections and take preventive measures to reduce the risks.

Abu Dhabi’s environmental sciences lab is equipped with cutting edge technology and continuously monitors wastewater for various pathogens. The program operates in collaboration with global and local health organizations to detect circulating strains of viruses and other potential threats in it. Regular surveillance ensures that public health officials can respond swiftly to emerging health risks by minimizing the impact of infectious diseases on the population.

This proactive approach reinforces Abu Dhabi’s commitment to public health and disease prevention by positioning the emirate as a leader in global health security.
