Rabat – Morocco’s government decided on Thursday to extend the country’s COVID-19 state of emergency until October 31.
The state of emergency renewal came during the cabinet’s weekly council, adopting a draft decree that extends the measure throughout the country.
The decision reflects the government’s prevailing belief that COVID-19 is far from over despite the significant decrease in the number of COVID-19 cases.
The North African country recorded 15 COVID-19 cases today and zero deaths. Fifteen recoveries were reported today.
The country is currently home to only 114 active cases, one of the lowest numbers compared to data recorded during previous COVID waves.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 in March 2020 in Morocco, the country has recorded 1,2,64,935 infections, including 16,278 deaths and 1,248,543 recoveries.
Citizens and residents who received the first two COVID vaccine doses reached 23,402,162. Morocco is now administering the third and fourth booster doses.
People who received the third booster dose reached 6,817,637 people, while people who received their fourth booster shot reached 49,526.
