PTI and Coronavirus
March 28, 2020

Indecisiveness can be dangerous

Dealing with the coronavirus and its aftereffects is going to be a Herculean task. What is further adding to the difficulties is the federal government’s reluctance to take timely decisions on crucial matters. During the National Coordination Committee (NCC) meeting on Friday the PM again reiterated his reservations about the lockdown which is already being observed in three provinces. Health SAPM Dr Zafar Mirza has shown reluctance to accept eminent haematologist Dr Tahir Shamsi’s proposal to urgently make preparations for passive immunization before the country is unable to afford more ventilators. With the NCC, chaired by Prime Minister Imran Khan unwilling to issue instructions to stop religious gatherings, tens of thousands of worshippers stood shoulder to shoulder in mosques on Friday disrupting the efforts to stop the virus from spreading further.

The major decisions taken at the NCC moot on Friday revolved around helping those who will have to face severe food deprivation in case of a full scale national lockdown. With industries closed, construction coming to a halt, hotels and shopping malls shuttered and transport mostly suspended, the private sector work force is largely out of a job. Similarly, rickshaw and taxi drivers, domestic labour, street vendors and those attached to the gig economy are left with no source of income. With no savings at their disposal, hundreds of thousands would risk starvation. What is needed is to supply dry rations in rural areas and open takeaway soup kitchens in poor urban localities

Mr Khan has come up with the idea of raising a Coronavirus Tiger Force to distribute food. Inspiring youth to defy risks and rise to the occasion by helping the needy is creditable provided the intention is not to revive the PTI’s defunct Tiger Force.

The NCC moot decided to use the funds at the disposal of the Ehsaas programme to help the needy keep the wolf from the door. It also decided to issue an appeal for donations to all Pakistanis living in the country as swell as the expatriates. There is also a need to divert the funds collected for dams to help the jobless poor. What is required most is timely and decisive action. The country’s leadership cannot afford Hamlet-like vacillation.

If only pm nawaz sharif was here he would magically give out vaccine the same way he had a open heart surgery and started walking the same day
 
IMHO ... Pakistan's structural problems (e.g., an ineffective economy, widespread poverty, etc) would've prevented Nawaz/PML-N, Zardari/PPP, and even a dictatorship etc from doing any better than IK/PTI.

I get that it's tempting to point fingers at the past, or to make fun of the present, but seriously, we need to figure out the future -- before it's too late.

PTI chairman is doing nothing.. if you have missed out the recent news. It's Army that has been called in and they are planning and executing all the organization, starting from camps at taftan to organizing PPE and ventilators for medical staff.
There are news that some of the earlier donated test kits landed in Shaukat Khanum and they offering tests privately. This was PTI.
Than there are news that masks donated by Ali baba were provided to PPP hospital owned by Dr. Asim, those masks are beign sold privately for 1000 PKR. This was PPP
On PMLn Side SS has donated some PPE kits to doctors in Punjab. It's in news as well but not in main stream media.
Only difference, PTI and PPP are in govt. and using state funds and foreign aid and suelry and habitually doing corruption as well. While PMLn who is being criticized on pdf and on this thread is not in power and they claim to have donated kits from private funds of NS.

That's just evil.

Bigger evil is... there are reports that protective kits bought in 2017 were issued to Punjab, govt. hospitals.
Just check out the news from 00:57 to 02:00

Anything is expected from SS. He's one man army.
It was him, who gave the idea of procuring ventilators. Did you missed out on that one as well?

Oh yeah it was him that gave that idea because everyone else aint got a clue that if a persons lung function is compromised he would need a ventilator but guess what the world didnt know that so thanks to SS now everyone knows so nobel peace prize for him and his brother


Yeah that would have cured the whole pmln

Considering the Pakistani Government was helping the Chinese from very early on and knew very well that a global pandemic was inevitable, for some reason the Shaikh Chillian PTI Government didn't think Pakistan will also need ventilators or bothered to prepare for anything at all for at least three months.

Well maybe you wont understand but the whole world currently is in need of ventilators and its not easy sourcing ventilators when every other country is running short on them too and the country in question doesnt manufacturer them itself which if previous governments had actually given a dam about the country then maybe we wouldnt be were we are today they would have made plenty of hospitals with the required equipments but you dont wanna hear anything bad against your ex choor e azam now would you.

Yes, hiding RAW spies in their factories!

One man army of TRAITORS!

It's Army that has been called in and they are planning and executing all

Wasn't that the case during floods during PMLN government? Army doing all the rescues whilst Showbaz the scum stood in flood water posing for media!

Scum of a one man Army he was then!
 
Let's wait for a day or two and IK will be announcing nation wide lockdown and the very same people objecting lock down will justify it making it halaaal lockdown
 
God bless the army. You have to love the dedication and care Pakistan army has for its people.

If army hadn't intervened, Imran Sadiq and Ameen Khan wasn't going to bother at all and let the whole country get infected and wait for summer for it to magically disappear.

This should be a lesson to everyone. Never elect fools to position of power. Imran Khan is considering this to a game of cricket match. You win some, you lose some. That's the mentality of this dude tasked with the lives of millions of people.

I am all for army imposing a martial law now. Please give us proper leadership.

Just look at the mentality of these people. Professor Doctor female Einstein Zartaj Gul

It's just horrifying that these people are in power.
