A hotel in Algiers has been slotxo converted into a hospital for coronavirus patients as case numbers
continue to climb to record highs and overwhelm hospitals.

Despite government efforts including extended curfew measures, citizens have despaired over oxygen
shortages and a vaccination programme branded "chaotic" by the TSA news website.

Prime Minister Aymen Benabderrahmane inspected facilities at the Mazafran Hotel in the capital
on Monday, several days after announcing that a "large hotel" in each province affected by
the pandemic would be turned into Covid-19 facilities.

State TV broadcast Mr Benabderrahmane's visit, reporting that the hotel would provide 712 beds in
446 rooms for patients requiring breathing assistance after receiving initial treatment in hospital.
