Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that the number of Pakistan's coronavirus cases is lower than projected, warning however, that the country could face "difficulties" from mid-May. He advised people to be careful going forward.
Speaking a press conference he said: "Our initial projections said that we would have 50,000 cases by April 25. Thankfully that's not the case. Our new projections suggest that we will have 12,000 to 15,000 coronavirus patients. The pressure we expected earlier can now be felt next month."
The premier said that the government was procuring ventilators and personal protective equipment to prepare for the situation.
