Not confirmed whether patients recovered solely from being injected with Actemra: Yasmin Rashid

Punjab Health Minister Yasmin Rashid has said that it is "not yet confirmed" whether Covid-19 patients who recovered from the virus did so solely because they were injected with doses of Actemra.

"Actemra is a trial drug. The chief minister has given us permission to conduct a trial with 1,000 Actemra doses. We will airlift these injections if more are needed," she said.
