"In the ferocious battle against Covid-19, Pakistan finally has the upper hand. The last four weeks have witnessed a clear trend: cases are down, deaths are down and fear is down," writes Fahd Husain in today's Dawn.
"According to NCOC officials, Covid-19 may have peaked in Pakistan between June 15 and June 20. Statistics paint a vivid picture. At this peak, the positivity rate was hovering around 23 per cent. This means that for every hundred people tested, 23 were positive. This week the rate is 7pc. There are other data that show mid-June as the worst point since the first patient was diagnosed on Feb 26.
"Pakistan may have an upper hand for now, but the battle against Covid-19 is far from over."
