Dubai Police have launched an online game to help people understand the importance of following precautionary measures to limit the spread of Covid-19.
The game, called ‘Stay Safe’, explains how the virus spreads from one person to another and underlines the importance of hand washing, wearing gloves, masks and avoiding gatherings.
“Raising the public’s awareness during this critical period is a priority for Dubai Police so we developed the game,” said Brig Khalid Al Razooqi, director of artificial intelligence and smart services department at Dubai Police.
“In addition to that, with almost everyone carrying a mobile phone, using video gaming as an educational tool is very productive and reaches a larger number of people.”
The video game was developed by the police's artificial technology centre and can be played in five different languages: Arabic, English, Hindi, Urdu and Tagalog on https://staysafe.dubaipolicegames.com.
“We have seen the impact of online games that carry educational value and produced several ones which have been downloaded tens of millions of times,” said Col Hussain Bin Ghalaita, deputy director of the force’s AI and smart services.
Dirham Stretcher tips for having a baby in the UAE
Selma Abdelhamid, the group's moderator, offers her guide to guide the cost of having a young family:
• Buy second hand stuff
They grow so fast. Don't get a second hand car seat though, unless you 100 per cent know it's not expired and hasn't been in an accident.
• Get a health card and vaccinate your child for free at government health centres
Ms Ma says she discovered this after spending thousands on vaccinations at private clinics.
• Join mum and baby coffee mornings provided by clinics, babysitting companies or nurseries.
Before joining baby classes ask for a free trial session. This way you will know if it's for you or not. You'll be surprised how great some classes are and how bad others are.
• Once baby is ready for solids, cook at home
Take the food with you in reusable pouches or jars. You'll save a fortune and you'll know exactly what you're feeding your child.
