Professor Yacine Kheloui, head of the pneumology service at Blida hospital, is in favor of resuming Air Algeria flights for the repatriation of Algerians.
Indeed, Professor Yacine Kheloui, head of the pneumology service at Brahim Tirichine hospital (formerly Faubourgs) says he is in favor of a possible resumption of special Air Algeria flights for the repatriation of Algerians stranded abroad.
In addition, during an interview with Ahcène Chemache, a journalist at Radio channel 3, the specialist speaks out about the closing of the borders. As a result, he indicated that it is quite possible to resume repatriation operations in a normal manner. Thus, allow fellow citizens stranded in airports and elsewhere to reach Algerian soil.
In detail, he said that so far and since the onset of the health crisis, the government has repatriated a very large number of citizens. Especially since the latter came from countries that were very infested and where the epidemic was at its peak. However, this did not prevent the Algerian state from bringing them back.
“The current situation is different”, according to Kheloui
However, according to the same speaker, currently, the situation is different. On one hand, because the number of these Algerians who are struggling to try to survive in other countries is much lower than the number that was repatriated initially. But also, because the country is quite capable of handling this situation.
In addition, during the same interview, the professor clarified that the competent authorities are quite capable of scheduling special flights for these people. Thus, put in place a health protocol of isolation and screening tests to allow the traveler to rejoin his family.
In the end, Yacine Kheloui wanted to send a message to the population. He indicated that she should take charge of herself. This, while respecting the preventive measures. In particular, social distancing, wearing a mask, and washing hands. And this, even while being vaccinated.
