Umrah from UAE 2024 latest news
In compliance with health regulations, the Ministry of Health and Prevention in the UAE has announced important guidelines for UAE pilgrims planning Umrah trips to Saudi Arabia in 2024. These measures aim to ensure the safety and well-being of all pilgrims, their families, and society at large.
Starting 26 March 2024, all UAE pilgrims traveling to Saudi Arabia for Umrah must:
- present valid influenza vaccination cards
- ensure vaccinations, including influenza, are administered at least ten days prior to travel
- consult healthcare providers, especially individuals with chronic illnesses, to assess their health status and medication needs
High-risk individuals, such as the elderly, pregnant women, and those with chronic illnesses, are urged to prioritize vaccination to reduce the risk of flu-related complications.
Furthermore, pilgrims aged 65 and over and younger adults with chronic diseases or weakened immune systems are recommended to receive the pneumococcal vaccine before travel for additional protection.
Dr. Hussein Abdul Rahman Al Rand, Assistant Undersecretary for the Public Health Sector, emphasized the Ministry’s commitment to ensuring the health and safety of pilgrims. Collaborative efforts aim to protect pilgrims from potential health risks during Umrah. These guidelines underscore the Ministry’s proactive approach to safeguarding the health of UAE pilgrims during their spiritual journey.
