Talib wants campaigning against virus in local languages

KARACHI: Veteran athletics coach Muhammad Talib has stressed the need for aggressive campaigning in local languages to raise awareness about the deadly coronavirus that has swept across the world.

"All TV channels must launch an aggressive campaign to raise awareness about the virus. Since there is a large population living in villages and far-fetched areas, we must convey our message to them in their own local language," Talib said, while talking to 'The News' here the other day. "The people must take it seriously and should not ignore the government directives,” he added.
