Moroccan media outlets Goud.ma and Aljarida24.com prompted concerns over a probable outbreak of the West African Ebola virus in Morocco.

As a matter of fact, the sources alleged that the Moroccan authorities may have sent some West Saharan natives directly from Airport Mohammed V in Casablanca to the Moulay Youssef hospital after suspecting their contamination with the virus.

The Moroccan authorities denied this right away.

 Mr. Abdelghani Drhimeur, Ministry of health’s spokesman, said that “no infection case with the Ebola virus has been detected, neither within Morocco nor in any of its airports.”
