    GET READY FOR THE SECOND WAVE!


    By Hamza Ameer

    Islamabad, Nov 19 (IANS): New coronavirus cases have started to surge again in Pakistan amid a second wave of pandemic, prompting the government to impose smart lockdowns in hotspots and ban all public gatherings across the country.

    The Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) government has also notified the return of a lockdown from next week, shutting down schools, wedding halls and beauty parlours, while the Punjab province has also extended smart lockdown in several coronavirus hotspots.

    The urgent decision came after Pakistan witnessed a major surge in single-day confirmed cases.

    Over 2,000 cases have been reported this week, raising serious concerns over the second wave.

    Health experts have described the second wave of the virus as "deadly contagious".

    The PoK government has issued a notification regarding the lockdown, to be imposed from November 22 to December 6, putting a complete ban on public gatherings.

    "All political, religious and social gatherings will be banned during the lockdown. However, prayers inside the mosques would be allowed subject to strict adherence to the anti-Covid standard operating procedures (SOPs). Funeral prayers will be restricted to 50 people.

    "All public and private sector educational institutions, including religious schools, wedding halls, shopping malls, barber shops, beauty parlors and private clinics will be closed. Dine-in facility in restaurants will also not be allowed but the take-away service will be permitted," the notification.

    It further said that government and semi-government offices will have only 50 per cent of staff attendance, while a complete ban on visitors will be imposed.

    Unless current tests conducted is shown with current positive results it is meaningless to show total tests conducted that too with dubious antigen tests.
