Balochistan is dealing with a massive outbreak of the Congo virus. Almost 20 deaths have been reported so far this year, including that of a doctor. Out of the 200 suspected cases, 73 have tested positive. Concerns are rising about the spread among healthcare workers, highlighting the need for better infection control and the use of protective gear. Collaboration between authorities in Balochistan and Sindh is crucial for safe patient transfers.
Since there is no vaccine yet, raising public awareness and taking preventive measures, especially in the livestock industry, is essential. The government should act swiftly to protect healthcare workers and enforce safety measures.
