As of September 28, 2022, the total number of deaths caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) in Morocco reached 16,278. As of the same date, over one million overall cases of COVID-19 were confirmed in the country.
Development of the pandemic
On March 2, 2020, the first case of COVID-19 was recorded in Morocco. By the end of the year, 437,332 infections had been recorded in the country. The rise in the number of cases continued throughout the following year. Furthermore, although the recovery rate from the virus increased between December 2020 and June 4, 2021, it declined gradually after this date until it generally increased from August 15, 2021 onwards. Consequently, recoveries from the virus reached a total of over one million as of January 2022. Concurrently, the daily rate of occupancy of intensive care beds in the country dropped compared to 2020.
Economic impact on households and businesses
Developments in the spread of the virus in Morocco had some economic impacts on citizens and business activities. Many Moroccan households, especially those of the lower class, lost their sources of income in 2020. Furthermore, although a greater proportion of business enterprises were active during the pandemic, many others were temporarily or permanently shut down as of the second half of 2020. Moreover, 83 percent of business operations declined, with micro-enterprises, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) being the most affected.
