The Health Ministry denied plans to reopen borders this Wednesday, amid spreading news about Morocco’s Scientific Committee on Covid-19 recommendations on the reopening of borders.
The Health Ministry said these are fake news, adding no recommendations to reopen the borders have been made, but rather, there is a possibility of an increase in cases in the country, as the Omicron variant surges worldwide, with WHO describing it as a highly transmissible virus of concern.
Morocco decided to suspend all direct passenger flights for a period of two weeks, starting November 29, at 11:59 p.m, as part to avoid the surge of South Africa’s new variant.
“Citizens must keep respecting precautionary measures as well as get vaccinated in order to remain the stability witnessed in the epidemiological situation in the country,” Health Ministry’s press release concluded.
