ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has reported as many as seven Covid-related deaths while 679 fresh cases of the pandemic have been reported in the country during the last 24 hours, the data shared by the National Institute of Health (NIH) said Friday.

According to the NIH report, 23,035 Covid tests were conducted across the country in the past 24 hours, out of which 679 turned out to be positive. The nationwide Covid-19 test positivity ratio climbed to 2.95 per cent as compared to yesterday’s 2.81%.

It is pertinent to mention here that World Health Organisation (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said he was worried that coronavirus case numbers were shooting up, putting more strain on health systems and workers.

The number of Covid cases reported to the WHO increased 30 percent in the past two weeks, driven by sub-variants of the Omicron strain and the lifting of control measures.
