Pakistan has set a new Corona virus vaccination record as more people follow the advice of Dr. Faisal Sultan, Pakistan’s Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Health, who asked Pakistanis to be vaccinated. Asad Umar, head of the NCOC, said on Sunday that Pakistan was setting the highest daily vaccination record for three consecutive days.

Umar shared that the nationwide mobile vaccination campaign, designed by the NCOC and “being implemented with the help of the provinces, is yielding excellent results”.
