Moroccan Post issued a special “Morocco United Against COVID-19” stamp, the revenue from the sale of which will be donated to the Special Fund for the Management and Response to COVID-19. This special item pays tribute to the nationwide effort in fighting the spread of COVID-19. It shows the representatives of each institution involved in the battle, including doctors, medical staff, police officers, civil protection agents, and janitors.
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Most people who fall sick with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without special treatment.
“This postage stamp highlights the commitment of the Moroccan nation with all its components for the implementation of the strategy initiated by King Mohammed VI to fight against the pandemic,” declared Morocco Post.
It is emphasized that the new postage stamp enriches the Moroccan philatelic heritage, highlighting previous special releases it issued to raise awareness, including “The world united against malaria” in 1962, “Moroccan league for the fight against cardiovascular diseases” in 1980, “World AIDS Day” in 1991 and in 2006, “AIDS campaign” in 2011 and “First National Cancer Day” in 2008.
