KARACHI/ISLAMABAD: When Pakistan lifted the coronavirus blockade on Monday, it was noted that citizens were completely unaware of the precautionary measures the government had obviously begged the country to serve the first day and markets were crammed with children.
No one in the country’s bazaars found that he practiced social estrangement and only a small number of people wore face masks.
While social estrangement was followed at restaurant tables and in the internal food courts of shopping malls, many others in the dhaabas (roadside restaurants) did not practice any of the popular operative procedures (SOPs) similar to coronavirus while allowing their love for halwa puri, nihari and tea.
The National Command and Operations Center (NCOC) announced last week that the closure of the coronavirus would be more convenient today, with markets, grocery shopping centers, movie theaters, restaurants, lounges, gyms, restaurants and other businesses to open across the country, adding major cities. such as Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar and Quetta.

Pakistan was forced to close in March to stop the spread of coronavirus; however, on 10 August the issue was raised to the implementation of protection standards and POE opposed to coronavirus, with spaces that opened up as the number of instances decreased.
The NCOC, on the other hand, warned that non-compliance with PCOs over coronaviruses in Muharram’s next holy month can lead to an increase in the number of infections.
Tourist destinations across the country, which won a touch on Saturday when the government allowed hotels to reopen there, saw an increase in business there when other people flocked to appreciate the attractions and enjoy them after months of staying indoors.
