I am Swedish and left Nouakchott last Thursday.
Arrived Dakar in the evening (going by car, then sept-place to Dkr, hot dusty and crowded but going with small taxi cost €150).
Planned to stay on the beach one day before going home.
But 2.30 in the morning there was a message that Morocco had closed
Awoke the hotel owner and he took me to the airport and I was on the next flight home.
Lisbon Saturday there was still no signs of what would come within 48 hours, all flights were normal with a few exceptions.
I believe Morocco closed the border with Mauretania.
To Senegal is probably still open, check with the Senegalese embassy.
No visa needed for a Swede.
Better be in Dakar than in Nouakchott, more to do and more ways to get out.
Dakar is well ahead in virus research btw, with the Pasteur Institute.
They were working on 10 minute corona tests when I was there.
Here's the charming Rosso bureau a week ago. We crossed with small boat.
