Adnan Ghazali, head of the Syndicate of Biologists said the number of COVID-19 tests performed in recent weeks has declined, alongside a decline in positive tests conducted in Morocco.

Naji, a member of the Scientific Committee for Vaccination, said that the epidemiological situation is improving, as infection and fatality rates are on steady decline.

According to the latest tally by the ministry of health, Morocco has fully vaccinated 20,908,945 people, while 23,230,919 received their first shot of the vaccine.

As for the booster shot, it has been administered to 644,722 people as of Saturday. Morocco continues to bet on its national vaccination campaign, in an effort to curb the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

The ministry of health released a circular on Saturday, urging regional health officials to implement a strategy to accelerate the vaccination process of the citizens who have yet to receive their jabs, in addition to widening the availability of the third booster shot.
