COAS hails NCOC's efforts against COVID
Pakistan Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa has paid tribute to the National Command and Control Centre (NCOC) for its efforts against coronavirus.
The documentary was shared by Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director-General Major General Babar Iftikhar on Twitter with the Army chief's praise for the NCOC.
"NCOC has remained pivotal to Pakistan’s riposte against COVID-19. It symbolises [an] optimised national response [to] adversity, saving precious lives. Accolades for the NCOC team on completing 500 days of continuous struggle & delivery," said the COAS.
August 8 marks 500 days since the principal body governing the policies and implementation of the national COVID-19 effort of Pakistan was formed to synergise and articulate a unified national effort against COVID.
To celebrate the occasion, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) uploaded a documentary on their YouTube channel titled "Azam-e-Alishan (NCOC: A Unified Endeavour)".
The documentary highlights how the NCOC was created in March 2020 and how it is functioning to supply statistics and make informed decisions based on them.
