Spokesperson of Sindh Government and Advisor for Law, Environment & Coastal Development Barrister Murtaza Wahab has said that the spread of Coronavirus has been controlled with the cooperation of the people of Sindh. This was possible due to better policy of Sindh government. He expressed these views while addressing a press conference at Sindh Assembly Auditorium on Tuesday. He said that many people are trying to take credit for this but the reality is in front of everyone. The Sindh government’s strategy to curb the spread of corona has been successful. Presenting the statistics of people infected with the corona virus, he said that in Sindh till July 21, the number of cases of corona virus was one hundred and thirteen thousand while the number in other provinces was very low. He said that the spokespersons of the federal government misrepresented that due to wrong policies of the Sindh government, the number of Corona patients has increased. He said that four and a half lac tests have been done in Sindh while Punjab which has many times more population than Sindh has undergone about four lakh corona virus tests. In Sindh, double tests were conducted from Punjab. Sindh also has a high recovery rate among patients infected with the corona virus. Eighty-two percent of patients have recovered in Sindh, while the number is much lower in Punjab and other provinces. He said that the death rate of patients from Corona was also lower than all other provinces in Sindh. Blaming won’t do anything. Statistics show that the Sindh government’s strategy regarding Corona has been successful. The Spoke-sperson of the Sindh government while giving all the details of the patients infected with the corona virus said that the purpose of disclosing the statistics is to ensure positive cooperation of the people with the government. He said that the impression that Corona was gone was wrong and new patients of Corona were still emerging. He appealed to the people that we should not lose sight of the precautionary measures. If precaution is not taken then cases may increase. The health department is conducting free Corona test for citizens. If any person has any symptom, they must get tested. The Sindh government is going to enact more legislation regarding Corona. Later, the Sindh government Spokesperson, while highlighting the situation in the country after Corona, said that the virus of PTI corruption was spreading rapidly in the country. Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is exposing the corruption of PTI. He said that in practice PTI was deviating from its slogan and following one or two Pakistan.
