With Covid-19 cases on the rise in Pakistan, it is all the more important now that we take all the necessary safety precautions. Please don't leave your house unless it's absolutely necessary. And when you do, please always wear a mask and practice social distancing. Many of us have started behaving like everything is normal. It isn't. Please be safe!
