Dubai announced this week it has reopened for tourism. But it remains unclear how many foreign visitors will return as many nations still struggle to stop the spread of the coronavirus. The city-state in the United Arab Emirates depends heavily on tourists to spend dollars and pounds to support its economy. Dubai officials are seeking to bring visitors back to the area’s beaches and modern shopping centers. They hope to create interest now that could keep tourists coming through the important winter season. The government has promised measures aimed at keeping tourists safe. Industry workers will be armed with thermometers, face coverings and hand sanitizer.
