  • I think these steps are taken after China issued statement of corana as a possible bio-attack so this is done in view to prevent further damage of bio attack in Pakistan. Pakistani people need to understand this is not just simple animal virus this is possibly very powerful lab created bio-weapon hence these aggressive actions are being taken.
