  • disease prevention, with a major focus on testing and diagnostics;
  • protecting and enabling healthcare practitioners and other key workers, who are at the frontline of the fight against this pandemic;
  • enabling patient care and facilities; and,

It is a fact that the people of Pakistan are resilient, and I pray that they face this crisis with caution and care by heeding to the invaluable advice of healthcare professionals and caring for themselves, their families and their communities. I also acknowledge the government and armed forces’ commitment and the selfless dedication of our fellow citizens such as healthcare workers, law enforcement personnel, NGOs, essential services, city cleaners, and countless others, who are risking their lives while toiling against the pandemic. May Allah SWT bless all our people with the courage and fortitude to withstand the challenges ahead of us – Aameen.
