According to his office, Baitas is unable to host the traditional post-government council press conference. Indeed, the minister is currently isolated at his home where he is following his treatment, in accordance with the anti-Covid health protocol.
His health condition is "stable". Mustapha Baitas is presenting "very mild symptoms that are not worrying [...] because he completed the vaccination process on time, including the third booster dose received on December 15," the same source points out.
