What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads in Dubai about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...

"As an AI language model, I do not have personal experiences. However, I can provide you with a general overview of the experiences people have had with the local healthcare system in Dubai during the pandemic. During the pandemic, many people in Dubai have reported positive experiences with the local healthcare system. The government has taken swift action to control the spread of the virus, implementing strict safety measures and providing free testing and treatment for COVID-19 patients. Healthcare facilities have been well-equipped and staffed, with medical professionals working tirelessly to treat patients and manage the crisis. Telemedicine services have also been expanded, allowing people to consult with doctors remotely and avoid unnecessary visits to healthcare facilities. This has helped reduce the burden on the healthcare system and minimize the risk of infection. However, some people have faced challenges in accessing non-COVID related healthcare services, as resources have been diverted to manage the pandemic. Additionally, there have been concerns about the mental health impact of the pandemic, with many people experiencing stress, anxiety, and depression due to the ongoing crisis and its effects on daily life. Overall, the local healthcare system in Dubai has been praised for its response to the pandemic, but there have been some challenges in addressing the broader health needs of the population," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Dubai, the UAE.

"Very poor PEP protection at SGH but dentist VilaFortuny was excellent with full PEP available," commented one expat who made the move to Dubai, UAE.
