Good afternoon

@Hasan Wahlan @Warren Flay @Xavier Treasurer @Zed @Karthikeyan Govindarajan @Mus_hus78 @Farouq Owdeh @Kamal Fayad @Goutam @Gok Krish

You are all confirmed for the drive. Please let me know if there are any changes in your plan.

The meeting point is now updated.

The plan is to set out and explore the highlighted area below. The topographic maps shows this area is 300+ m from sea level. We may face several hurdles on the way as some of the areas might be fenced, so we might have to venture through some technical areas.

Please make sure your vehicles are in good condition as we will be attempting some tall climbs. Make sure your vehicle fluid levels are okay.

I will be shortly updating the convoy list.

See you all soon!!

My COVID test results are not showing up on the App, I am trying to resolve it.

I am trying to call AlHosn app help line which is turning on some kind of podcast like message and also trying the clinic.

Can anyone let me know what I should do?

update: The clinic gave me an test ID number and said should call DHA to ask them to update the app. But gentleman at DHA advised me that the Turnaround time is 30 hours within which the DHA will update the App. 

I had my test done yesterday evening and got the negetiv test result in the morning. Did the test at a private clinic because it is near my house in walking distance.

@Lakshmi Narasimhan faced a similar issue a few weeks back. I think you'll need to check with the private clinic. They should be instructing DHA to update the app.

I did my test in Seha center, my problem was the test date was updated wrongly. I called Seha and they updated it. Its better to do test in Govt test centers than private.
