KARACHI / ISLAMABAD / QUETTA / PESHAWAR / LAHORE / GILGIT / MUZAFFARABAD: The new Corona virus appeared in Wuhan in central China at the end of last year and it had multiplied in most parts of the world in a few months. This is not ferocity or death, but a new virus infection – also known as SARS-CoV-2 – that has caused global madness.

The Covid-19 respiratory disease caused by this mysterious infection has so far infected more than two million people in 202 countries and regions in the world – more than 128,000 have died and are still growing.

And Pakistan, although close to China, remained free of the halo virus until February 26, when a positive young Karachi man was announced after returning from Iran – one of the most affected countries. After a short pause after the first case, the case of Covid 19 jumped because more pilgrims returning from Iran had tested positive for the virus.

The national number of Covid-19 patients reached 6861 cases with 3232 cases in Punjab, 2.008 in Sindh, 912 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, 281 in Balochistan, 237 in Gilgit in Tastan, 145 in Islamabad and 46 in Azad Jammu and Kashmir.

The virus has killed 128 people, while at least 1,645 patients have recovered from the virus.

The number of cases continued to rise although the country had been closed for three consecutive weeks.

The situation remained smooth and we updated the statistics once the new figures were officially released.
