Moroccan Actress Pleads Tearfully for COVID-19 Compliance from Abroad

Dounia Boutazout, who has been living in Portugal for several months, calls on Moroccans to help the authorities in their efforts to limit the spread of the coronavirus. "My country, my parents and my family miss me. I can’t see anyone because of the health emergency declared because of covid-19. Respect the instructions. It’s the only solution to win the war against the coronavirus. We all want to see our families as soon as possible. Be responsible," she said in tears.

Despite the drastic measures, there has been a sharp increase in the number of cases in Morocco in recent days.

To try to limit the spread, the ministry reminds citizens of the need to "respect the rules of hygiene and health safety", as well as the preventive measures taken by the Moroccan authorities by "showing responsibility and patriotism".
