Suspects of COVID-19 from Iran to Pakistan are Brought to Sukkur

A wave of fear is arisen around the globe with the spread of novel global pandemic “Corona Virus”. Corona virus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan, has spread around the globe. Currently, 150+ countries are suffering from this chronic disease. The countries, suffering from this deadly epidemic, are cogitating about the ways through which it can be cured and its spread can be controlled. In February, 2020, the first case of corona was discovered in Pakistan. With passing days, the number of patients, suffering from corona virus, has grew in Pakistan. These patients have travelled from the countries which were suffering from corona virus. With the growing threat of corona virus, the pilgrims who have returned from Iran to Pakistan were brought into Labor Colony Isolation Camp Sukkur on 14 March, 2020 via Taftan Border. The number of the pilgrims are 306 including males, females and children. These people are suspected of corona virus. Thus, for checking purpose, they were brought into the labor colony flats near Qureshi Goth Sukkur. The roads in the vicinity of labor colony are locked down and people of Sukkur are not allowed to pass from the roads that are alongside labor colony flats. If the suspects show symptoms of corona virus, they will be shifted into the Gambat Medical Institute for the purpose of diagnoses and if they show positive results for Corona Virus, then, they will be treated accordingly. So, here the citizens of Sukkur are warned to follow the necessary precautionary measures as there is high probability that the virus will spread if the suspects show positive results for corona virus.

Here are some precautionary measures to protect yourself from Corona Virus

1) Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use a hand sanitizer.

2) Distance yourself from other people if Corona Virus is spreading in your community.

3) Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow.
