Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah, in a video message on Thursday, said that more cases of coronavirus were being reported from the slum areas of the province and it was highly alarming. He said that seven members of the same family residing in the slums have been infected in Karachi.
One person from a family had gone out of the house and came back unfortunately to infect others, which also spread on to a one-year-old baby and a six-year-old girl, he said.
He also requested that people who have the utmost need to go out for collecting ration bags should take all the possible precautionary measures to protect themselves.
He said that 1,380 pilgrims had arrived in Sindh, out of whom 1,108 tested negative. They were still quarantined for a period of two weeks before being allowed to go home.
Currently, the number of positive cases in Sindh is 1,128, out of which 349 have recovered.
There is still no update on when the lock-down will be lifted from the CM, but once it does, the factories and industries will have to take all the precautionary measure for safety.
