Morocco Reports Third Coronavirus Recovery as Cases Rise to 115

Even if the recovery rate is not proportional to the contamination rate, hope is allowed. The recovered patient is a French national of Senegalese origin. According to the Ministry of Health, the national balance sheet shows 115 confirmed cases, 4 deaths and 3 recoveries (figures as of March 23).

For the Director of Epidemiology and Disease Control at the Ministry of Health, a recovery means that "the tests tested in two different laboratories, 24 hours apart, are negative". The director explains that "the other cases are practically all in good health, and under treatment". He added that recovery could be confirmed in the coming days.

The Ministry of Health calls on citizens 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 in order to help contain the spread of the virus.
