The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) announced that it has suspended the Perfumes and Incense Exhibition at Al Hazm for two days due to the "organiser’s failure to adhere to Covid-19 preventative measures".
In a statement on social media on Sunday, the MoPH said the the violations include having more than the approved number of attendees in the exhibit space; entry and exit to the exhibit space violating Covid-19 preventative measures and social distancing protocols; and exhibitors and attendees not following mask requirements.
The exhibition will be cleared for resumption once the organiser demonstrates compliance with all Covid-19 restrictions, the MoPH has stressed.
"The ministry expects future exhibits, and approved gatherings, to adhere to all public health requirements and guidelines – any activities found in violation will be shut down. The ministry also reminds all citizens and residents to adhere to the required preventative measures, including wearing masks and observing social distancing," the statement noted.
