Morocco and Algeria Flights Linked to COVID-19 Spike in France, Expert Warns

"Recently, flights between Algeria and France were organized before the borders officially reopened. There were infected people on board. Since last Saturday, we have had cases of dual nationals who have probably gone to confine themselves there and have been repatriated," explains the infectious disease specialist in an interview with L’Express on Sunday, July 5.

"It’s exploding in Algeria, and the curve is similar in Morocco," added Eric Caumes. The infectious disease specialist supports Morocco’s decision not to open its borders for fear of a resurgence of Covid-19 cases.
