Sheikh Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Fujairah, have prioritised the health and safety of all citizens and residents in the emirate and protect them from coronavirus, COVID-19, through the implementation of a national campaign adopted by national authorities and institutions.
