Pakistan: Sindh bans indoor dining, closes schools amid a spike in COVID-19 cases

Islamabad/UNI: The Sindh government on Wednesday announced that it had decided to reimpose coronavirus restrictions regarding indoor dining and also ordered the closure of all schools in the province due to a rise in the number of Covid-19 cases.

This decision was taken in a meeting of the Provincial Task Force on Coronavirus presided over by Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, Dawn reported.

The ban on indoor dining would begin from Thursday night.

All schools will be suspended from Friday while for grades 9 and above, only examinations would be held.

Amusement parks, water parks, Sea View, Hawkesbay and Keenjhar lake are set to close again from Friday while cinemas, indoor gyms and indoor sports activities would close from Thursday itself.

The decision comes after health officials on Monday proposed renewed restrictions fearing the fourth wave of the pandemic rearing its head in the province, particularly in the provincial capital Karachi.
