Algerian President Abdel Majid Taboun, on his official account on Twitter, tweeted that the quarantine of 43 people from 3 Maghreb countries, who had been departed two weeks ago from Wuhan, China, had ended.

Taboun said: "I have received with satisfaction the news of my children leaving safe after any epidemic after the quarantine period, and I wish you good health and success in your studies and share your family and family with the joy of safety, extending many thanks to the staff who respected you and everyone who sponsored you."

The Algerian Minister of Health, Abdel-Rahman Bin Bouzid, told a press conference that 36 Algerian citizens, returning from Wuhan, had been released, after spending a period of preventive quarantine, at the Marsa Hotel in the eastern suburb of Algiers.

I have received with satisfaction the news of my children leaving safe after any epidemic after the quarantine period. I wish you good health and success in your studies and share with your family and relatives the joy of safety, extending my sincere thanks to the staff who evacuated you and everyone who sponsored you.
