Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has said that despite efforts to contain its spread, people in Karachi's slum areas have started testing positive for Covid-19 because they failed to observe social distancing as advised by experts.
He added that seven members of a family including two children living in a slum area in Karachi's central district have tested positive for the virus.
Shah urged the people in slums to get ration or cash when it was distributed in their areas but to avoid crowding, otherwise they "will not only be infected but would carry the virus back to their homes and get their family members infected".
