Among the residents whom Allah Almighty healed after suffering from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is Elie Yaqoub Jabra, who affirmed that the precautionary measures taken by the UAE and its awareness campaigns about the virus, its symptoms and methods of prevention helped him recover.
“The psychological factor is very important in dealing with someone with strength and self-confidence, as well as faith in Allah Almighty’s omnipotence,” said Jabra, who has lived in the UAE with his family since 2005 and works as a sales representative for a detergent company.
Jabra added that the next day, his temperature returned to normal and he felt no pain except for losing his sense of smell and taste.
He remained in this condition for several days until he received a call from health authorities telling him that he tested positive and must be hospitalised. An ambulance then took him to hospital.
Jabra stated that the medical care he received in hospital cannot be described, and he was then given instructions to exercise, learn deep breathing techniques, and given medication to treat a lung inflammation he was suffering from.
He stayed in the hospital for eight days, and after his condition stabilised and he no longer felt any symptoms, he was transferred to a hotel in Al Ain for two weeks for further testing.
