ISLAMABAD: Soon after the first two cases of coronavirus reported in the country, State Minister for Health Dr Zafar Mirza has assured that the contagious disease will not take a form of outbreak in Pakistan.
He was addressing media with Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Kamal Khan in Quetta late Wednesday night.
Authorities have already taken all the measures needed to control the spread of highly contagious disease, Dr Mirza added. “There is no need to create panic. We need to take precautions and fulfil our responsibilities to stop the spread of novel virus.”
The de facto federal health minister urged the people that if someone has travelled from any country where coronavirus is prevalent than they should contact the doctor.
He also said that Pakistan is the last country in the region which is affected by the deadly disease and assured that the country is on the right track and there is “no fear of epidemic”.
On the directives of Prime Minister Imran Khan, Dr Mirza said the health ministry will daily brief the media regarding the coronavirus.
