Currently, there are only three active cases out of the 332 positive confirmed cases registered including 10 deaths. While 315 people have recovered from the virus.
Despite no new cases in the last eight-days, the sanitary curfew put in place on March 20, and which should have ended today, was extended until June 1, Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth announced last Friday.
“The population will need a little more patience, to avoid the risk of a second wave of the Covid-19 epidemic,” Jugnauth said.

As for markets, bars, and shopping centers they will remain closed until June 1, while schools will resume on August 1.
