Morocco on Wednesday authorised for emergency use the coronavirus vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford, the health ministry said.<\/p>\n

The North African nation, with some 35 million people, has recorded over 447,000 COVID-19 cases including 7,618 deaths, according to the latest official count.<\/p>\n

The government says it has ordered 65 million doses of AstraZeneca’s vaccines as well as from the Chinese firm Sinopharm.<\/p>\n

It says preparations for rolling out the vaccine are “very advanced” but has not given a date for injections to start.<\/p>\n

The authorities re-imposed a nationwide curfew and other restrictive measures on December 21 in a bid to slow the spread of the virus.\n <\/p>\n\n
