Tunisia-Dr Rim Abdelmalek: Don’t rely on Wali Sidi Mahrez to fight COVID-19

Dr Rim Abdelmalek, Epidemiologist at Rabta hospital said that life will resume its normal pace after the country records 42 days without any single infections.

In a statement to Watania 1, she affirmed that COVID-19 cannot be seen by the naked eye, however, it’s spreading in the air and its symptoms are still present. She further adhered citizens to commit to preventive measures such as wearing masks, washing hands, avoid touching the eyes and other recommended measures.

She invited them to adhere to the health ministry recommendation and not Wali Sidi Mahrez because the possibility of relapse and returning to square one still exists since the virus is still present in Tunisia.
