The in-charge of the Parliament House Dispensary in a letter has drawn the Senate Secretariat's attention towards a recent surge of Covid-19 infections among parliamentary staff, saying the situation "may lead to a catastrophe in future".
According to Dr Parveen Abrar, the NIH had conducted Covid-19 tests of 382 National Assembly and Senate staff members during the last week, out of which 67 have returned positive with two results pending.
She said this amounts to a positive ratio of 17 per cent "which is quite high".
