GOVT CAUTIONS PEOPLE DURING THE INCREASED SPREAD OF COVID-19 DURING RAMAZAN

Govt has taken numerous steps to ensure that people are increasingly careful regarding the spread of the virus. PM’s aide has given an extensive speech over the measures that people need to take to prevent the spread in Ramazan:

Traditionally rush is observed at shops at the time of iftar. The situation on Saturday evening was not different than that of past years. People need to understand that if we don’t follow the precautionary measures, the situation may become worse. Pakistan is passing through a crucial, critical time when the disease can spread rapidly. I request the masses that they should change their routine of iftar, sehar and visiting mosques, The trend observed on the first of Ramazan was not encouraging at all. I believe that doctors are aware of the situation of hospitals and our capacity issues. I request you not to go to the places of rush.

Regarding the trials, Dr.Mirza stated:

Pakistan is not manufacturing the vaccine, but a Chinese company has contacted us to become part of trial of vaccine. We have contacted the company for the documentation and we will take a number of steps, including addressing ethical issues, before allowing [the trial].

“However, it will take time and those who think that a vaccine will be available in a few months are not right. A similar research is being done in Japan on anti-viral medicine and the embassy of Japan in Pakistan has contacted us for trials in Pakistan. We have requested for the documents and decision will be made after analysing the documents. It is too early to say that medicine will be available. In Pakistan, over 138,000 tests have been conducted. In the past 24 hours, 785 cases and 16 deaths were reported. The disease is being transmitted locally and only 21 per cent cases have been reported in foreign travels. As many as 2,755 persons have recovered in Pakistan
