Morocco reported 3,841 new Covid-19 cases in the past 24 hours, raising the number of cases in the country since the pandemic began to 853,373.

The country also reported 76 deaths on Sunday.

Morocco is betting on its national vaccination campaign to curb the spread of new infections. According to the ministry of health, 18,226,896 people received the first jab of the Covid-19 vaccine, while 14,364,557 were fully inoculated.

The Kingdom has recently pushed its vaccination drive to include teenagers aged 12 to 17, however, Morocco recently announced that vaccination of this age group will not be mandatory, and it is up to parents to decide if their children will be vaccinated and whether to use the Sinopharm or Pfizer vaccine.
