In terms of Covid-19 vaccination, Morocco has achieved in a few days a score that several other countries known for their progress in the field of Health have not yet reached, says Professor Abdellah Baddou in an interview. As of February 16, 2021, Morocco has already vaccinated 1,904,169 people.
Contrary to the decision of the French High Authority for Health (HAS), recommending the injection of a single dose to people already infected with the coronavirus, Morocco will continue to inject the double dose to these patients. These doses will be administered 21 days apart for Sinopharm and 28 days for AstraZeneca.
Morocco expects to receive 4 million AstraZeneca vaccines this week, from India. Given the pace of the vaccination campaign, the Minister of Health estimates that the objective of vaccinating 30 million Moroccans will be achieved in 3 to 5 months.
Flight AT 3896 of the airline Royal Air Maroc (RAM) which took off on Monday for Beijing has just landed at Mohammed V Airport in Casablanca. The second batch of the Sinopharm vaccine has thus been received.
The regional health directorate (DRS) of Fès -Meknès has denied the rumors of recent days reporting the death of two elderly people after being vaccinated against Covid-19. According to it, these fabricated information, have no other purpose than to sabotage the ongoing national vaccination campaign.
Morocco is expected to receive a new shipment of the Sinopharm vaccine on Tuesday, February 16, 2021. It will be transported by flight AT 3896 of the airline Royal Air Maroc (RAM) which took off this Monday for Beijing.
Thanks to political, economic and social reforms, Morocco remains a reliable destination for foreign investors, mainly Spanish. This is what Karima Benyaich, the Moroccan ambassador to Spain, indicated.
