According to the Department of Health (DoH), COVID-19 tests will be provided free-of-charge to everyone living in the area.

The DoH has revealed that free transportation to and from the testing facilities will also be provided to the residents of Musaffah.
Restrictions will be imposed and workers will not be allowed to enter or exit the area until the sanitisation programme is over, however, daily commercial activities in the area will operate as normal throughout the campaign.
