Face Mask Shortage - And latest COVID-19 Numbers Wednesday 8th


Protective mask: A shortage already in Casablanca - L'Economiste

There seems to be no outlets for face masks in the Fez Medina. A majority of people wearing scarves instead - scarves that offer little or no protection.

Nevertheless, Health authorities say... "“In two days, we distributed 5.3 million masks in large specialised stores (GMS), then to grocery stores.”

“We have established a partnership with two dairy distributors. Today, we already cover 66,000 points of sale and at the end of the week, we will cover all of the points of sale. ”

On the sale price
“The price is regulated by royal decision, it will remain at 0.8 dirham. We have contacts with large European countries which ask us to export masks to them and we will, because we will soon meet the needs of the Moroccan market. ”

“We will soon be exporting Moroccan masks to Europe.”

"This price is regulated, Moroccans must be careful, they must not pay them at a higher price."

ATM machines in R'cif have a tissue dispenser for cleaning the keys and white paint marks on the pavement to delineate social distancing guidelines.
