In a commentary on the epidemiological situation, posted on LinkedIn, Mr. Mrabet pointed out that for the second week, a discrete increase in cases and weekly positivity rate was recorded, reporting 75 more cases recorded this week compared to last week.
The weekly positivity rate is 1.3% this week against 1% last week, he added, noting that a variability between regions was observed this week ranging from 00% in Guelmim-Oued Noun to 3.5% in Casablanca-Settat.
In addition, new cases of severe covidosis and deaths continue their downward trend with lower values recorded during the community transmission phase in Morocco, he noted. Thus, 16 new admissions in intensive care and resuscitation against 26 discharges after improvement of the clinical condition were reported for only 3 deaths, he noted.
The next two weeks will bring more visibility on the evolution of the viral circulation in Morocco, said Mr. Mrabet, insisting that preventive measures must be observed in high-risk situations (gathering places, TARAWIH, closed places, administrations, public transport, stadiums … etc). The boosted vaccination of the population, especially the vulnerable ones, must also continue.
