The Federal Cabinet meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Imran Khan, has approved to grant 150 million dollars to procure anti-Covid vaccine.

Federal Cabinet meeting, which took place on Tuesday in Islamabad, gave details about the important decisions taken by Prime Minister’s Special Assistant on National Health Dr. Faisal Sultan along with Minister for Information and Broadcasting Shibli Faraz.

The Special Assistant said, for this purpose, few companies have been shortlisted, contacted and initial conversation has been started with them.

He said in first phase of providing the vaccine, our priority will be healthcare workers and old age people who are most vulnerable to the virus.

Commenting on PDM’s recent public rally in Multan, Shibli Faraz urged the opposition not to play with the lives of people for its personal gains as the second wave of coronavirus is at its peak in the country.

He said public rallies are banned to protect people from the Coronavirus and we will deal with the violators legally instead of putting hard restrictions.
