8 infants die in Pakistan hospital
Sikandar Hayat Warraich, the spokesman for the District Teaching Hospital Sargodha, told Dawn via telephone that premature births coupled with low birth weight led to the deaths of the infants.
He told Dawn News that their deliveries were performed by midwives who were unable to provide frontline medical care that is imperative for a newborn baby.
Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has taken notice of the situation.
The CM has formed a three-member team to investigate the death of the infants.
