TUNIS, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- A senior Tunisian health official on Sunday warned of the exponential spread of the COVID-19 in Tunisia, saying the pandemic has reached Stage Four, Tunis Afrique Presse (TAP) reported.

"During this stage, contracting COVID-19 within a family exposes all members to the risk of infection, which is likely to worsen the number of cases across the country," said Chokri Hammouda, director general of National Authority for Assessment and Accreditation in Healthcare, in a statement quoted by TAP.
