Moroccan king-year-old criticizes people’s lax attitude | Royals

entertainment">The corona virus has been on the rise again in Morocco for several weeks. After a three-month lockdown, the measures were relaxed at the end of June, but the country is now registering more than a thousand new cases a day. On August 15, a record 1,766 new corona reports was registered. The hospitals in the African country can hardly handle the number of cases of illness.

entertainment">“If the numbers continue to rise, there could be another lockdown and perhaps with even stricter restrictions,” said Koning Mohammed, who turned 57 on Friday. The deteriorated situation, he says, leaves “little room for optimism.”

entertainment">Mohammed thinks that the coronavirus is currently being thought too easily in his country and has therefore expressed strong criticism. “Some have confused the lifting of the lockdown with the disappearance of the disease and others have been unacceptably lax. Some even deny the existence of the pandemic. The reality is that a large part of the population does not respect the measures, such as wearing mouth masks and keeping their distance. ”

entertainment">At the end of July, the king stated that Morocco wants to do everything it can to recover from the corona crisis. For that reason, an amount of nearly 11 billion euros was pumped into the economy.
