Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Health Dr Zafar Mirza has said that the government is providing personal protective equipment (PPE) to more than 450 hospitals weekly.
"Yet there are complaints that the PPEs are not good quality or not provided. We have assessed and one of the problems is that hospitals are not assessing and distributing the resources given to them by the government," he said.
The second reason he said was the irrational use of resources.
"A hospital told me they weren't receiving PPEs especially N-95, when I came out of the meeting, the guard was wearing N-95 masks."
