Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Health Dr Zafar Mirza has said that around 25 per cent of all hospital assets in the country are engaged as of now, clarifying that the overall situation in the country was under control.

"But I'm sure some hospitals are full in some cities. But that does not mean hospitals in the entire country are full," he said.

The PM's aide stressed the need for following standard operating procedures and adopting social distancing particularly outside homes.
