"Morocco continues its mass vaccination campaign against Covid-19, managing to immunize so far more than 1,500,000 people," wrote the news website, noting that the campaign continues at a good pace after the delivery of a new batch of 4 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine, in accordance with the High Guidelines of HM the King who reiterated at the last Council of Ministers the need to continue vaccination "with the same pace and the same spirit of responsibility".
"After the Sovereign personally launched the first phase of the national vaccination campaign against Covid-19 on January 28, Morocco launched the second phase, targeting mainly the medical corps and frontline staff, as well as priority categories of people aged 65 and over," the same source noted.
Recalling that Morocco has received different batches of the British vaccine AstraZeneca, manufactured in India, as well as that of the Chinese laboratory SinoPharm, the Chilean media noted that the Kingdom has acquired a sufficient quantity of vaccine to immunize more than 30 million people (66 million doses of vaccine) free of charge, with a view to reducing and then eliminating cases of contamination and deaths due to the pandemic.
In addition, the publication highlighted Morocco's readiness to support other African countries in their fight against the new coronavirus.
