The Minister of Energy, Mines and Environment, Aziz Rabbah claims to have tested positive for Covid-19.

In a message posted on his Facebook page, the minister said that the results of his Covid-19 screening test were positive. Mr. Rabbah is the second member of the government council to be affected by the coronavirus after his colleague from Equipment and Transport, Abdelkader Amara, who tested positive on March 14.

The latter had presented himself to the medical services to undergo the usual examinations, after feeling abnormal fatigue accompanied by headaches. He had just returned from an official one-week mission in a European country. He had been declared cured after a few days of treatment at home.
