Delta Variant Surge: France Weighs Travel Advisory for Morocco

"Those who have not yet booked their holidays, avoid Spain, Portugal in your destinations. This is a recommendation that I insist on," Clément Beaune, French Secretary of State for European Affairs, said on France 2.

"We are closely monitoring the situation of countries where the outbreak is very rapid, Portugal, Spain, particularly Catalonia where many French people go to party. Attention, great caution [...]. We may have reinforced measures," he added.

The Delta variant is not sparing Morocco, the favorite destination of the French. In total, 43 cases of contamination with the Indian variant have recently been detected in four regions of the kingdom. It remains to be seen whether France, which classified Morocco in the orange zone in early June, will advise its citizens against the country.
