Coronavirus infections in Morocco are “under control” so far, as the Kingdom is still in the second stage of the spread of the virus thanks to the efforts undertaken by the public authorities to curb the spread of the pandemic, said Tuesday in Rabat minister of Health, Khalid Ait Taleb.
Speaking at the upper house, the minister underlined that these measures, which were taken upon the high instructions of HM King Mohammed VI, enabled Morocco to avoid 6,000 deaths according to studies.
The national epidemiological watch and surveillance system follows all the news and information related to the deadly virus, he pointed out, noting that Morocco was among the first countries to prepare to face this pandemic.
After the proclamation of the health emergency and the closing of borders, the Kingdom experienced a transition of infections, he said, noting that local infections are now the most dominant ones.
The minister also mentioned the different stages of the spread of Covid-19 in Morocco, stressing that the large urban agglomerations are the worst-hit places, particularly the regions of Casablanca-Settat, Marrakech-Safi, Fez-Meknes and Rabat-Salé-Kenitra.
