Moroccan Hospital Denies Allegations of Selling Disinfectant to Staff Amid Pandemic

In the clarification released on Tuesday, the hospital management states that it has received a petition signed by 34 nurses and midwives, expressing their "surprise and disapproval of the tendentious content of the article in question". The management assures that it has made available to the hospital staff and medical, paramedical, administrative and technical personnel, since the beginning of this pandemic, "all the necessary protective equipment" and is surprised by the relentlessness with which certain media publish and defend the false.

The management specifies that the Souissi maternity hospital remains "a reference in the management of covid-19 cases", and that "all medical, nursing, technical and administrative staff have been mobilized, in addition to the allocation of a course, more than 60 beds and an intensive care unit, a room for childbirth and an operating room".

It invites the media to approach reliable sources before any publication. "The establishment says it fully assumes its mission of providing health services, in full transparency and equality between citizens and according to its human, financial and logistical capacities".
