We could be lucky
Or through Jahilat we could be really foolish
I think India screwed itself with its election rallies and kumb Melas and is now stuck and screwed
Pakistan I feel just caught the situation before it got too bad and I have a feeling that with SOPs and proper precautions whilst we may see a rise in infection and deaths it will be limited
however considering the utter Jahilat of some of our people we could mess it up if we don't follow the rules and spread covid then bitch and complain afterwards
its upto us, we are in the early stages and we could turn out to be very very lucky we can flatten the curve now
Ban any gatherings, religious meetings, even Eid apart from family
lets help ourselves then Allah SWT will help us

The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) on Thursday decided to curtail inbound flights to Pakistan from May 5 to May 20 amid the country's worsening coronavirus situation.
The forum in its meeting chaired by Minister for Development and Planning Asad Umar decided to review the restrictions on May 18.
A statement issued after the meeting said detailed instructions regarding the reduction in flights would be provided by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
During its meeting, the NCOC also reviewed the production and supply of oxygen, granting permission to import 6,000 metric tonnes of oxygen and 5,000 oxygen cylinders to shore up healthcare facilities in the country.
Besides this, the NCOC also allowed the import of 20 cryogenic tanks and decided to shut down the scrap industry of Misri Shah so oxygen could be diverted to the healthcare sector instead.
The meeting also decided that vaccination of people aged between 40 and 49 will begin from May 3.
The NCOC also announced a "Stay Home, Stay Safe" strategy from May 8 to May 16, aimed at controlling the movement of people, including during the Eidul Fitr holidays.
According to the NCOC:
Last week, Pakistan introduced a stricter travel ban on 23 countries and extended travel restrictions till April 30.
A fresh notification issued by the CAA containing the list of countries categorised as A, B and C was shared by the regulator with 20 countries placed in category A. It also increased the number of countries in category C to 23 with India added to the list.
According to a previous notification effective from March 23, there will be a complete ban on inbound travel to Pakistan from category C countries, including withdrawal of exemptions earlier provided to Pakistani passport and Nicop holders.
The counties included in category C were South Africa, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Comoros, Mozambique, Zambia, Tanzania, Rwanda, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Chile, Eswatini, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Malawi, Seychelles, Somalia, Suriname, Uruguay, Venezuela and India.
The CAA said travellers from 20 countries falling in category A did not require a Covid-19 test before entry into Pakistan. All countries not specified in category A and C fall in category B.
The CAA said travellers from countries not specified in category A required a Covid-19 PCR test before commencement of travel to Pakistan (maximum 72 hours old).
Pakistan has reported 5,480 new cases of the novel coronavirus in the last 24 hours as well as 150 fatalities. The country's caseload has risen to 815,711 while its death toll stands at 17,680.
