Earlier this month, Morocco has decided to transfer all Covid-19 patients to two health facilities in Ben Guerir, near Marrakech, and Benslimane, near Casablanca. The decision is reassuring and relieving to citizens more than health workers, according to Dr Al Mountadar El Alaoui from the Independent Union of Public Sector Physicians (SIMSP).
While placing citizens at the heart of the State's strategy to stem the spread of the new coronavirus in Morocco, Abdelouafi Laftit managed to convey reassuring messages to Moroccans. The Interior Minister urged Moroccans to respect lockdown measures.
