COVID-19 Outbreak Among Marrakech Butchers Raises Concerns Ahead of Eid Al-Adha

24 hours before the celebration of Eid Al-Adha, about twenty butchers have been infected in Marrakech. These new cases of contamination show the seriousness of the situation.

Cases of contamination are multiplying in Morocco, despite preventive measures and numerous awareness campaigns. The Minister of Health did not hide his concern about this wave of contamination. Butchers were required to be tested before slaughtering sheep during Eid Al Adha, scheduled for this Friday, July 31 in Morocco.

It should be noted that as of July 30, the Marrakech region has 3,512 cases of coronavirus contamination, or 15.81% of the total in Morocco.
