Latest: Coronavirus live
The UAE reported 471 new coronavirus cases and 604 recoveries on Saturday.
Officials said two people died in the past 24 hours from complications.
An additional 354,614 tests were conducted over the 24-hour period, bringing to 80,279,230 the total number carried out since the beginning of the outbreak.
Daily infections continue to steadily decline due to nationwide test and trace protocols, safety measures and a high vaccination rate.
The country has recorded 732,299 cases, 723,941 recoveries and 2,073 deaths since the first Covid-19 case was detected in the Emirates on January 29 last year.
A national vaccine and booster campaign continues, with more than 80 per cent of the population now double vaccinated.

• An official drinks interval has been called.
• The umpires have approved the on field treatment of an injury to a batter or fielder.
• The time lost is for any circumstances beyond the control of the fielding side.
• The third umpire starts the clock either when the ball has become dead at the end of the previous over, or a review has been completed.
• The team gets two warnings if they are not ready to start overs after the clock reaches zero.
• On the third and any subsequent occasion in an innings, the bowler’s end umpire awards five runs.
