Health Minister Zahid Malik has suggested the countrymen not to make unnecessary foreign trips as deadly novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has spread to 60 countries across the globe.
“It’s preferable to avoid unnecessary tours to foreign countries as coronavirus has spread to 60 countries of the world…many international events have been cancelled for this,” he said.
The minister came up with the suggestion while talking to the reporters at a press briefing on coronavirus and dengue at the secretariat on Tuesday, reports UNB.
The new virus, first detected in China, has infected more than 89,000 people globally and caused over 3,000 deaths.
