He said that his country is collaborating with the Government of Pakistan to help stop COVID-19’s spread nationwide and to care for afflicted people.
The ambassador further said that all of these contributions are identified as top priority needs by the Pakistani authorities and they are fully paid by the American people.
Giving details, he said out of $8 million, $3 million will be utilized in providing three new mobile labs, so Pakistanis living in virus hotspots can be tested, treated, and monitored to stop the spread.
$1 million will be spent on funding high-tech emergency operations centers in Islamabad, Sindh, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan while $2 million has been allocated to train community healthcare workers to assist people in their homes, which will lessen the burden on hospitals.
Furthermore, $2.4 million will be spent on conducting life-saving activities in Afghan refugee camps and host communities in Pakistan through the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
