ANP MNA Amir Haider has called for unity among opposition and government, saying "we cannot fight against coronavirus if we continue to wage a war" amongst ourselves.

He said that instead of shifting blame, the parliament needs to take "collective responsibility" as every party has been in power at some point or another.

"We are all responsible for the state of our current health system," he said.

Speaking about easing restrictions, he posed many questions to the government:

"Have we acted too early, too fast? Have we reached our peak? Have we flattened the curve or are we moving towards herd immunity? Are we all on the same page?"
