1021 new Covid-19 infections were recorded in Morocco in the last 24 hours, the Ministry of Health announced, bringing the total number of coronavirus cases in the kingdom to 27,217 people.

The Ministry of National Land Use Planning, Urban Planning, Housing and City Policy has taken new measures recorded in the 2020 Amended Finance Act to support the recovery of the housing sector. This sector has been severely affected by the health crisis related to the coronavirus.

Morocco is dangerously approaching the 30,000 mark for contamination cases. In recent days, dozens of serious and critical cases have been recorded.

Morocco could adopt in the coming days even more restrictive measures than those taken at the very beginning of the pandemic. There is an exponential increase in the number of people infected with the coronavirus, as well as an increase in critical cases and the number of deaths.

The number of check payment incidents is up 2.2%, or 470,515 incidents in 2019. The total cost of these incidents is estimated at 13.8 billion dirhams, according to Bank Al-Maghrib (BAM).

The health personnel have not finished making sacrifices in the fight against Covid-19. The Ministry of Health plans to cancel the leave of doctors and nurses to cope with the worrying rise in cases of contamination.

Le Point claims that King Mohammed VI has "engaged Morocco in major economic and social projects" in these times of Covid-19. The magazine decodes the speech of the sovereign delivered on Wednesday, July 29 on the occasion of the 21st anniversary of his accession to the throne.

Morocco is about to make a new decision regarding the care of people affected by Covid-19 but who "do not show any symptoms of the disease". It is the home care of these people.

This is a sad record that Morocco has just set. Over the past 24 hours, the kingdom has recorded 19 deaths due to Covid-19, the highest figure since the appearance of the virus last March.
