Riyadh, Jun 26, 2020, SPA -- The Islamic Arab Society of Cordoba province in the Argentine Republic has commended the decision taken by the government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to drastically limits numbers of pilgrims for this year's Hajj season 2020. The Society said: "This decision has many implications at this time that coronavirus pandemic is still spreading in the world with no vaccine, so it is imperative to take preventive measures to preserve public health and the lives of people." It described the Kingdom's decision to ensure that Hajj would be performed in a safe manner from a public health perspective while observing all preventative measures and the necessary social distancing protocols, as a great decision since it aims at protecting pilgrims from the risks associated with this pandemic. --SPA 22:43 LOCAL TIME 19:43 GMT 0026 www.spa.gov.sa/w1358578
