پاکستانی، بھارتی اینکرز ایک صفحہ پر!!
ان دنوں بھارت اور پاکستان کے ٹیوی چینلوں، بھارت کی حکمران جنتا پارٹی (بی جے پی) اور پاکستان کے بعض سیاسی لیڈروں کے بیانات میں حیرت انگیز یکسانیت ہے، بھارتی چینلوں کے ہندو مرد و خواتین اینکرز👇

اور پاکستانی چینلوں کے مرد و خواتین اینکرز کو جنہیں "مسلمان" ہی کہا جاسکتا ہے، مساجد میں باجماعت نماز اور تبلیغی جماعت انہیں کرونا وائرس سے بھی زیادہ خطرناک نظر آرہی ہیں ،مساجد اور تبلیغی جماعت کے خلاف بھارتی چینلوں کا خبث باطن تو قابل فہم ہے👇

روزنامہ "ہندوستان" کے صحافی متھرا پرمود اور کاشی راؤ نے جھوٹی خبر دی کہ پرتاب گڑھ کے ضلع مہیش گڑھ میں کورونا وائرس پھیلانے پر تبلیغی جماعت کے 20 افراد کو گرفتار کر لیا گیا، کیونکہ ایسا نہیں ہوا تھا پولیس کو تردید کرنی پڑی،👇

@HarisBaig16662 @HarrisRichard77 We started observing this trend at the end of last month when we saw that the number of patients requiring emergency treatment had declined from 1,800-2,000 to 600-700 a day,” a critical care specialist at the JPMC told The News.(8)
@HarisBaig16662 @HarrisRichard77 But the number of people who either were dead on arrival or died within a couple of hours after their arrival increased with every passing day. Initially, we didn’t pay any heed, but now we’re seeing a pattern. And this is also being reported by other hospitals,” he shared.(9)
@HarisBaig16662 @HarrisRichard77 The doctor added he started noticing the unusual pattern of DOA and near-death patients from March 31, when seven bodies were brought in—of which 1 death was due to a road accident—and seven other patients who were brought in alive died before they could be moved to the wards(10)

1. A few things about this report on fatality rates in Pakistan worth understanding;
Understanding data well will be critical in this fight; as will be the need for all; politicians; administrators; media; to change business as usual behaviour. Read on!

2. From the report; indeed KP health staff has done the best it can; they are working day and night; & there has been no laxity.
But wrong to say that conducting fewer tests is best practice. Across Pakistan, there isn't enough testing, as is the case across much of the world.
3. Given that, we are rapidly increasing testing capacity. From 40 to 300+ /day; within this month we will be at over 1000+ /day. This can only be done keeping in mind HR, safety, quality compliance and test availability. The last thing we need is for contagion in test centres.

Have been thinking a lot about the kind of behavior change communication strategy the government needs to employ to contain the spread of #CoronavirusinPakistan so here are some ideas for what it needs to focus on. Thread.
For those who don't know, behavior change communication (BCC) is a term used in development & public health for a process of intervention with individuals & communities to promote positive & avoid harmful behaviors that are injurious to individual or public health/well-being.
Broadly, in any behavior change strategy, you need to give people both an appropriate understanding of the risks involved (people will only take sufficiently precautionary action if they know how they are vulnerable) as well as actionable knowledge of the viable solutions.

Pakistan always wanted to get due recognition by the Muslim world.

It finally is. It is the country responsible for spreading Corona to the entire Ummah.

Communist China spread it to the world. Islamist Pakistan spread it to the ummah. "A friendship higher than mountains, deeper than ocean."

Just like between #Islamofascists and Communists in non-Muslim countries.

250,000 people gathered in Lahore two weeks ago, to participate in the Tableeghi Ijtema—"a congregation for outreach" from all over the world. Pakistan govt allowed this.

They were serious about outreach.

One very impressive incident was when a few people returned home in the area from Iran. Authorities went to the house and took them for quarantine.
Pakistan can have 40,000 to 120,000 cases by end of March
