The rapid increase in COVID-19 cases across Tunisia will lead to saturation of beds in public hospitals by the end of October, a Tunisian health official said on Monday.
“The continued growth in the number of infections, exceeding 1,300 cases per day, would affect the health system of the country,” said Habib Ghedira, a member of Tunisia’s committee on coronavirus.
He added that the committee will present “New proposals” to control the upward trend of the disease in Tunisia.
“The proposals could involve compulsory lockdown for people aged 65 and over,” Ghedira said.
Earlier in the day, Tunisian Health Ministry announced that 3,034 new coronavirus cases were reported between October 23 and 24, raising the total tally in the North African country to 52,399.
The death toll from the virus rose from 58 to 877, according to the ministry.
