Morocco will continue to require vaccination pass requirement among its population despite a noticeable drop in COVID-19-related cases and deaths.

COVID-19 infections continue to decrease in the country, with the virus less than 1% of its peak, according to Reuters’ latest COVID tracker released on Friday.

Member of the Scientific Committee, Mustapha Naji told Hespress that lifting the vaccination pass is not up for discussion, and it will still be required in order to boost protection among citizens.

“The vaccination pass pushes more people to get vaccinated,” he added.

“Many other countries still require the vaccination pass in order to enhance protection,” he stated, noting that anti-COVID vaccines do not represent a danger.

Naji further stated that the scientific committee plans to continue requiring a PCR test for people wishing to access the country, especially since most of the recent positive cases were recorded among those coming outside the country.

“The epidemiological situation is stable nationwide,” he said.

“This stability in COVID cases situation must be preserved,” he stated, stressing the need to continue respecting precautionary measures as well as receiving shots in order to reach herd immunity.
