WA SHI NGT ON A spokesman of Embassy of Pakistan in Washington DC, referring to media reports on the number of Pakistani American deaths on account of Covid-19 infections in the US, on Saturday said there were no formally confirmed figures available from any official source in the US. He said this was being informally quoted by community sources and some funeral homes. Such figures cannot, therefore, be authenticated. The spokesman further said, “Meanwhile we have no reports even informal ones of any Pakistani American deaths from our consulates in Chicago, Los Angeles, and Houston.” “The situation is evolving rapidly. The Embassy and the Consulate Generals are in touch with our community members and will be ready to extend every assistance and support wherever needed,” he concluded.
