Morocco's army staff receive second dose of COVID-19 vaccine

The staff of the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) received the second dose of the vaccine against the novel coronavirus (covid-19) on Friday at the headquarters of FAR General Staff in Rabat.

FAR members started receiving the second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine in the different regions of the Kingdom in full compliance with the preventive measures issued by the health authorities.

His Majesty King Mohammed VI launched, on 28 January at the Royal Palace in Fez, the national Covid-19 vaccination campaign. On this occasion, the Sovereign has received the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine.

In accordance with the High Royal Instructions, the vaccination campaign is free for all citizens with the aim of immunizing all components of the Moroccan people (30 million to vaccinate about 80 percent of the population), reducing then eliminating infection cases and related-deaths and containing the spread of the virus, with a view to a gradual return to normal life.

This national campaign, which will take place gradually, will benefit all Moroccan citizens as well as foreigners living in the kingdom aged 17 and over.
