Morocco on Thursday confirmed its second case of COVID-19, the virus that
has spread to 79 countries since it started in Wuhan, China last December.

The second person infected with coronavirus is a Moroccan citizen who


returned from Italy late Wednesday, the North African country's health
ministry announced.

"The infected woman is currently subject to quarantine at a hospital in


Casablanca," it said, adding that the hospital will look after the patient
according to approved health standards.

The virus has infected over 95,000 people, claiming more than 3,200 lives
globally.

The World Health Organization, which declared the outbreak as an


international health emergency, recently updated the global risk assessment
to “very high."

It has also advised the public to wash their hands more than the usual
besides delaying or avoiding travel to affected areas.

Common signs of the infection include fever, cough, shortness of breath and
breathing difficulties.
