While talking to the media, the Special Assistant said during the last few days, the positivity rate of Coronavirus cases has been reportedly increased from two percent to four percent, which is alarming.

“The main cause of this surge is violation of SOPs and the new variant of Coronavirus (Delta) coming from India,” he stressed.

The SAPM urged the general public to follow the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to contain the spread of global pandemic.

He said efforts will be made to implement SOPs with the help of the administration and the army.

Dr. Faisal Sultan made it clear that there is no shortage of vaccine in Pakistan and four hundred and fifty thousand vaccines have so far been administered.

Meanwhile, according to National Command and Operations Center (NCOC), around 1,808 cases of coronavirus were reported while 15 people succumbed to the disease in the last 24 hours, taking the total death toll to 22,597.

The total number of confirmed cases reached to 975,092. As many as 913,873 patients have recovered from the disease with 2,119 critical cases.
