Islamabad: Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan on Friday said that Pakistan is among the fortunate countries in the world where the COVID-19 cases in hospitals, particularly in intensive care units, have witnessed a decline.
Imran Khan took to Twitter Friday to shed light on the situation in Pakistan amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“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. This positive trend has been the result of our smart lockdown policy & the nation observing govt SOPs.”

In another tweet on the same thread, the prime minister once again urged the nation to continue observing the SOPs, which he believed is essential to sustain the positive trend.
“Eid ul Azha must be celebrated with simplicity so as not to repeat what happened last Eid when SOPs were ignored & our hospitals were choked. I am ordering strict implementation of govt SOPs,” he said.
