Pakistan to Ban Air Travel for Unvaccinated People

Pakistan will ban unvaccinated people from traveling by air from 1 August onward.

According to the details, the National Command and Opera­tion Centre (NCOC) and the Government of Sindh imposed more restrictions on unvaccinated individuals on Friday to control the nationwide surge in the pandemic.

However, the Pakistan Medical Association-Sindh (PMA) has termed these restrictions as “harsh”, and claims that they will lead to the proliferation of fake coronavirus vaccination cards.
