Morocco Secures COVID-19 Vaccine Deals with Chinese and British-Swedish Labs

The Head of Government announced during the Council on Thursday, September 24 that the vaccine against Covid-19 will be available at the end of the clinical trials that started a few weeks ago. Morocco has signed agreements with a Chinese laboratory and a British-Swedish one.

These agreements have, according to Saâdeddine El Othmani, been made possible thanks to strong international competition launched by the Kingdom in order to find an effective vaccine. The minister, government spokesman, added that the goal is to allow Moroccans to benefit from the vaccination as soon as the clinical trials are completed.

In a press release issued at the end of the Council, Saaid Amzazi noted that the whole world is living under the threat of the Covid-19 pandemic which resists all strategies, with its train of contamination and deaths. The vaccine remains the last bulwark to protect the population from the danger posed by this virus.
