The country has been recording high numbers of infections, with Tuesday's 9,823 cases and 134 deaths being the highest since the start of the pandemic.
Field hospitals have been established across the country and the ministry says these are not enough.
Health workers in the country are fatigued. Bodies of virus victims are left in beds because of lack of a staff to move them.
"We are struggling to provide oxygen," ministry spokesperson Nisaf Ben Alaya said.
Six regions in the country are under total lockdown.
Virus cases in different countries in Africa are increasing and the World Health Organization (WHO) says the "worst is still to come".
