While Morocco is beginning the deconfinement of the population, we have been witnessing an alarming increase in the number of infections for several days now. However, the health authorities reassure that the high number is due to the multiplication of tests in companies. Moreover, according to them, a very large majority of them would be asymptomatic.

The ministry calls on Moroccans to respect the rules of hygiene and health safety as well as the preventive measures taken by the Moroccan authorities by showing responsibility and patriotism.
