Islamabad :
The current situation in Afghanistan is likely to lead to a large influx of Afghan refugees into Pakistan, prompting health officials to make arrangements for corona testing for everyone entering Pakistan from Afghanistan who tested positive for corona. He will be sent to the quarantine center.
After the Taliban took control of Kabul, while there is a lot of uncertainty in Afghanistan, according to the report, those who tested positive for corona will be sent to the quarantine center.
On the other hand, after the new restrictions announced by the federal and provincial governments in the country, the number of corona cases is decreasing. There is a risk of the virus resurfacing.
An official from the Ministry of National Health Services (NHS) said on condition of anonymity that a large number of people, including Pakistanis and citizens of other countries, are likely to come to Pakistan from Afghanistan. It has been decided that Pakistani citizens will be allowed to enter the country despite not having a negative report of Corona PCR test.
However, citizens of other countries will be tested and those who have been diagnosed with the virus will be transferred to quarantine centers. However, he said that it would be a big challenge for the concerned government agencies to implement SOPs related to Corona from the people.
