400 samples examined daily to check level of cleanliness at Prophet’s Mosque

The Saudi Arabia General Presidency Agency of the Prophet’s Mosque Affairs has intensified its procedures to preserve public health and follow up on worshippers’ commitment to preventive and precautionary procedures.

It has called on all to adhere to wearing masks, applying physical distancing among queues and applying preventive guidelines, so that worshippers can perform prayers in a safe and healthy environment.

At the same time, the Laboratory Directorate at the agency is taking samples from the carpet, barriers, pillars, Holy Qur’an drawers, chairs, and other locations to be tested at the lab.

More than 400 samples are taken on a daily basis to check on the level of cleanliness of surfaces and places and ensure that the place is safe.

The agency has recently opened the mosque’s roof with the aim of facilitating procedures for worshippers, amidst intensified preventive measures. — SPA
