ISLAMABAD: The unprecedented nature of Covid-19 pandemic and Pakistan’s historic weaknesses in the health sector require a strategic reorganisation of healthcare delivery consistent with community needs and elevation of preventive and promotive healthcare strategies, says a new report released jointly by UN Development Programme and the human rights ministry on Wednesday.
Suggesting measures that are needed to mitigate the effects of the current pandemic, and ensuring that Pakistan is better prepared and more resilient in the face of any future disasters and disease outbreaks, the report, ‘Covid-19 and Disaster Vulnerability in Pakistan’ says Covid-19 should serve as a sharp wake-up call to have an improved healthcare system with the highest hygiene and sanitisation standards in places of high human interaction, specifically in hospitals.
