With Eid-ul-Azha just around the corner, the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) has issued new guidelines in a bid to contain the resurging Coronavirus on the occasion of Eid.
The new Coronavirus SOPs were finalized in the NCOC meeting that was held earlier today. The meeting assessed the overall COVID-19 situation in the country and expressed serious concerns over it.
Here are all the decisions taken during the NCOC meeting earlier today:
Besides the SOPs for congregational Eid prayers, the NCOC has also advised the public to avoid overcrowding public places as well as to follow Coronavirus SOPs while distributing meat.
