Islamabad (HRNW) The federal government will distribute 1,000 ICU beds to hospitals across the country throughout the month of June, Minister for Planning, Development and Special Initiatives Asad Umar said.
The Centre has also distributed 250 ventilators among provinces in the last week, he said.
Of these, 72 were given to Punjab. Fifty-two were given to Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa each and 20 ventilators were provided to Balochistan, the minister tweeted.
A balanced number of these ventilators were also sent to Gilgit-Baltistan, Islamabad and Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
Umar assured that the government was planning a package for hospitals to reduce their overall burden as the number of coronavirus cases across the country increase. The government has also planned things for July, he said.
