CM Balochistan Under Fire For Sharing Fake Info On Coronavirus
Chief Minister Balochistan Jam Kamal is under criticism for sharing fake information regarding the deadly coronovrius on Saturday.

CM Balochistan posted a photo on Twitter, that says “drinking a lot of water and gargling with warm water & salt or vinegar eliminates coronavirus.” Earlier, World Health Organisation (WHO) and other international health watchdogs had busted this fake information about the deadly disease, saying that the aforementioned practice cannot kill coronavirus.
