For a few days now, Morocco has been facing a sharp increase in the number of cases in the country. Last Friday, a hotspot in Lalla Mimouna, near Kénitra, was discovered. Some 700 people, mostly workers, have been affected by the virus. To try to limit the spread, the authorities have built a field hospital on site and greatly reduced the movement of the population.

In addition, a hotspot has also been discovered in Tarfaya, in the south of the country, affecting sub-Saharan migrants.
