Introduction Confinement, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, could have problems on the mental health of the population. Teachers responsible for giving distance courses during this period could be psychologically stressed. The aim is to assess the magnitude results of burnout and associated factors among primary school teachers in Kenitra in Morocco during this confinement period. Methods This is a cross-sectional study, which was conducted during the two months of April and May 2020. Burnout was evaluated by the Maslach Burnout Inventory MBI with 16 items, specific to the context of Moroccan teachers and the factors of stress were assessed using a questionnaire developed by the research team. We used the Chi-square test to determine the association between two qualitative variables anda logistic regression for an overall statistical analysis. Results The average age was 38.6 ± 9.9 years. The MBI revealed that 68 teachers (54%) were victims of burnout, of which 47 (38%) had a low level; 15 (12%) had a moderate level and six (5%) had a severe burnout. Logistic regression analysis has shown that the risk factors for burnout during this confinement period are: the use and development of skills in new information and communication technologies (p<0,05); work/family conflict (p<0,05); social support (p<0,05); and the workload related to distance education (p≤0,05). Conclusion In light of these results, interventions aimed at promoting mental well-being teachers during and after confinement should be implemented immediately.

Aims, objectives and methods: The study we have conducted aims to evaluate Moroccan students’ satisfaction level with regard to the use of distance learning platforms during the Covid 19 confinement period. We also attempt to examine the impact of distance learning on the students’ mental health.Our research has demonstrated that imposing distance learning as a learning process to students produces a substantial stress level within 49% of the investigated student population.Indeed, the students’ full immersion in distance learning process has obviously arose technical and pedagogical brakes within (87%) of the questioned student population, and also psychological brakes within (27%) of the respondent population. Furthermore, the particularity of this confinement’s period has brought to light three students’ categories regarding the use of distance learning in their training and learning process and behavior. Recommendations:Our study’s results can be considered very relevant because they show a clear correlation between the adoption of distance learning, as a new teaching approach, and, the perceived stress level (49%) involved during this process. Therefore, the clear necessity of material, pedagogical and psychological supports to be implemented during this transition stage. Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.19(0) 2020 p. S 51-S 57

OBJECTIVESTo determine the epidemiological profile and risk factors of voluntary poisoning by pesticides.METHODSA retrospective analysis was conducted of all cases of voluntary poisoning by pesticides registered at the AntiPoison and Pharmacovigilance Center of Morocco between January 2008 and December 2014.RESULTSDuring the study period, 2,690 cases of acute pesticide poisoning were registered. The region of Rabat-Salé-Zemmour-Zaer accounted for the largest proportion, with 598 cases. The average age of the patients was 24.63±10.29 years. The sex ratio (female-to-male) was 0.45. Adults and teenagers were most affected by this type of poisoning, with 1,667 cases (62.0%) and 806 cases (30.0%), respectively. Suicide attempts accounted for 98.4% of the cases (2,469 cases). Pesticide poisoning occurred more often in urban zones (64.8%). Insecticides were incriminated in 14.0% of cases, with a mortality rate of 4.2%. Among the 1,635 patients for whom the outcomes were known, 154 died, corresponding to a mortality rate of 5.7%.CONCLUSIONSVoluntary intoxication by pesticides presents a real scourge that affects public health, and in this study, we developed an epidemiological profile of this phenomenon. Nevertheless, this study has limitations in that it did not evaluate the impact of the socioeconomic and psychological factors that are important contributors to this type of poisoning.

Introduction: Burnout is a real malaise that affects the mental health of teachers. The objective is to determine the prevalence of burnout among primary school teachers in the Wazzane region and to look for associated risk factors. Methods: Descriptive crosssectional study conducted in 2017-2018 with a sample of 330 teachers. Socio-demographic and work-related data were assessed by a self-administered questionnaire and the Karasek Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ) the Karasek, the burnout by the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Results: 330 teachers participated in the study with a male predominance of 62.4% and an average age of 38.4 (SD = 8.9). The average scores for emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment were (21.8 ± 9.2); (14.1 ± 9.9) and (15.1 ± 8.4) respectively. Pathologically, emotional exhaustion was high in 23.9%, depersonalization was high in 24.2% and personal accomplishment was low in 26.1% of participants. 46.6% were victims of burnout, of which 23.9% had a low level; 14.2% had a moderate level and 8.5% had severe burnout. Logistic regression analysis showed that the predictors of burnout were female gender (p<0.01), Problems of equipment didactic (p<0.01), student demotivation (p<0.05), conflict with colleagues (p<0.05), work overload (p<0.01) and low decision-making autonomy (p<0.01).Conclusion: These results justify the interest of a prevention program and intervention at different levels to protect teachers.

Objective and mehtods: Our objective is to determine the containment effect on the spread of Covid 19 in Morocco. The methodology is based on an epidemiological study whose objective is to take stock of the current situation and to estimate the future spread of Covid-19 over time in Morocco. Several conditions were considered using the SIR epidemiological model for a better reliability of the results. During the study period from the appearance of the first case until 19 June 2020, Morocco reported 9074 cases of infections, 213 deaths with a lethality of 2.35% and a mortality of 6.04 per million inhabitants. Results and Conclusion: The results of the SIR model show a sudden increase in infections. The peak would be 4.4 million inhabitants or 12% of the total population under confined conditions. Selon ces résultats,Containment is one of the most effective methods of reducing the risk of infection. Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.19(0) 2020 p. S 58-S 65
