Top pulmonologist of Valley, Dr Naveed Nazir Shah, on Thursday urged people not to panic but take precautions as Covid-19 reared its ugly head in some parts of the globe.
“No scare just caution. Better to be safe than sorry. No harm in taking precautions. We are already facing influx of pneumonia cases. All May not be covid. By following appropriate behaviour can prevent them too… Last 3 years all respiratory infections were at low ebb due to CAB,” Dr Naveed Nazir Shah said in a tweet.
Notably, Health Ministry has asked all states to focus on heightened surveillance within the community, undertake requisite control and containment measures, and ensure coverage of precaution doses for COVID-19 vaccination amid a spurt of coronavirus cases in some parts of the world. (GNS)
