The Abu Dhabi Police have launched isolation capsules to airlift COVID-19 patients to hospitals.
It's part of the UAE's efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19.
The pods will limit the exposure of the paramedics and the crew while transporting the patients.
Major Dr Ali Saif Al Dhahouri, a specialist in aviation medicine with the Abu Dhabi Police, also highlighted how the capsules can be used in the future to transport patients with other infectious diseases.
Colonel Pilot Obaid Mohammed Al Shemeli, deputy director of the Abu Dhabi Police Aviation Department, noted that the system reflects the UAE leadership's keenness to provide state-of-the-art facilities to protect the health and safety of its people.
