Morocco Extends COVID-19 State of Emergency Despite Low Case Numbers

Even though the figures of Covid-19 infections have been relatively low in recent weeks with only 150 people infected and 1134 active cases this Thursday, November 24, Morocco has decided to extend the state of health emergency throughout the national territory until December 31, 2022.

This extension of the state of health emergency will notably make it possible to ensure the effectiveness of the measures taken in the context of the fight against the continuation of the pandemic, it is specified.

For the record, this draft decree grants the government authority in charge of the Interior to take, in the light of the epidemiological situation, all appropriate measures at the national level.
