HIBAPRESS – Khalil Fizzazi
Fears are mounting in the city of Dakhla against the backdrop of a rise in Diphtheria cases to five, according to circulating data. The infected individuals have been placed under quarantine as part of measures aimed at limiting the potential spread of infection.
The registration of these cases has caused concern among a number of city residents, especially in light of the lack of sufficient official clarifications regarding the developments of the epidemiological situation and the measures taken to manage the recorded cases, as highlighted by local observers.
Amidst these developments, demands are increasing for the Ministry of Health and Social Protection and the relevant health authorities to provide accurate data on the number of infections, the health status of the infected, the extent of the disease's spread, as well as the preventive measures adopted to protect citizens.
Many observers also call for strengthening institutional communication with the residents of Dakhla and clarifying the necessary preventive measures against infection, in order to limit the spread of unconfirmed news and help citizens deal with the situation according to official medical information.
Until clarifications are issued by the competent health authorities, the need for transparent and regular communication remains, keeping residents informed of developments. It is important to emphasize the significance of obtaining health information from official sources and avoiding the dissemination of unconfirmed data.
