Those who've been inoculated with Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine must get their booster jabs before the September 20 deadline.

That's according to the latest reminder by the Abu Dhabi Emergency, Crisis and Disasters Committee, which reiterated that it's mandatory for maintaining the green status on the Al Hosn app.

The authority explained that it applies to everyone who've received the second dose of the Sinopharm vaccine "six or more months ago".

A negative PCR test every 30 days is also required to maintain green status, which is essential to access several public areas in the UAE capital.
