Morocco decided on Thursday to extend the health state of emergency until May 31, said government spokesperson, Mustapha Baitas during the press briefing.

The state of emergency will therefore last from April 30 at 6 pm to May 31 at 6 pm until further notice, as part of efforts to curb the spread of the virus nationwide.

Baitas further stated that it was agreed on implementing the state of emergency throughout the country in line with the Interior Ministry, despite the slowing down of the COVID-19 virus, as a precautionary measure.

COVID-19-related cases and deaths are continuing to drop in Morocco, with the virus at 1% of its peak, according to Reuters’ latest Covid tracker.
