Authorities are expected to announce in the upcoming days regulations that require air passengers to either present vaccination passes or a 72 hours valid PCR test upon arriving at Morocco’s airport based on recommendations by the country’s scientific committee.
“We are waiting for the decision of the competent authorities,” said Professor Said Al-Moutawakil, member of the scientific committee to Hespress.
He referred to the easing of the restrictions for entering the country by maritime routes, but that “these conditions must be generalized even at the air borders, as there should not be a contradiction.”
Government spokesman, Mustafa Baitas previously told journalists during a press briefing that his government ” does not hesitate to ease precautionary measures to combat the pandemic when it has the appropriate conditions to do so.”
The public authorities have not taken any decision regarding easing the conditions for entry into the country for travelers arriving by air, especially after easing the conditions for those arriving by sea.
The Omicron wave has seen a slight increase in the number of cases recorded. This sudden increase prompted specialists and health experts to reiterate the importance of remaining cautious and recalling vaccination’s vitality.
Well-informed sources previously revealed to Hespress AR that the government would announce a new strategy to ease all restrictions imposed to limit the spread of the new Coronavirus in the coming weeks.
This new strategy will likely include narrowing the mandatory vaccination cycle to include only certain age groups with chronic diseases.
