Islamabad Pakistan on Thursday announced it would be lifting most of the country’s remaining coronavirus restrictions after seeing new cases drop for several weeks.
All restaurants and parks will be allowed to re-open from August 10, as will parks, theatres, cinemas and public transport, said Asad Umar, who heads Pakistan’s task force to fight the coronavirus.
According to government data, Pakistan’s daily virus deaths peaked at about 150 in June. But the number has steadily dwindled and on Thursday only 21 new fatalities were reported.
In all, Pakistan has confirmed more than 280,000 cases including more than 6,000 deaths. (AFP)
