Prime Minister Imran Khan has urged citizens to wear face masks to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
The premier said that majority of the people were flouting SOPs, thinking the virus was just a common flu. "If we continue to ignore SOPs, then we are putting the lives of the vulnerable in danger," he said.
"Please wear masks, this is very important. The world has realised that masks can prevent the spread by up to 50 per cent. Secondly, when you venture into public places, follow the guidelines that have been issued by the government."
He concluded his address by saying that only precautionary measures can help to defeat the coronavirus.
