Unlike India, Pakistan among ‘fortunate’ countries where COVID-19 cases reduced: PM
ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan has said Pakistan is amongst the fortunate countries where COVID-19 cases in hospitals especially in intensive care and the death rate have gone down, unlike in our unfortunate neighbor India.
In a tweet on Friday, he said this positive trend has been the result of our smart lockdown policy and the nation observing government's SOPs.
The prime minister urged the nation to continue observing SOPs to sustain this positive trend. He said Eid-ul-Azha must be celebrated with simplicity so as not to repeat what happened last Eid when SOPs were ignored and our hospitals choked. PM Khan ordered strict implementation of the government’s SOPs.Pak is amongst the fortunate countries where COVID 19 cases in hospitals, esp in intensive care & death rate have gone down, unlike in our unfortunate neighbor India.
