The worker was found reeling under high fever, cough, and dyspnea.
The place was secured by the cops. The police asked the Ajman Medical Zone to rush a medical crew and ambulance to the accommodation. The medical staff carried out examinations and laboratory tests, which showed that the man was not suffering from coronavirus, and was down with influenza and cold.
"We have also communicated with the company representative and notified him to follow up on the workers' health condition and provide them the required medical care in light of the current crisis," Al Ghafli said.
He urged the company owners to keep a regular check on the health of workers, and ensure their commitment to the precautionary measures that prevent the spread of the virus.
