Corona Daily - 23 March

Pakistan Day Mubrak. Let's get united to safegaurd against every internal, external and natural calamity. 
It is surprising and painful that educated key board warriors are spreading rumors. Some disagreeing with govt measures and augmenting divide policy. Others spreading rumors online. Can't judge anyone for malintent or their motives but ignorance is very strong ingredient of such activities. Rumors cause confusion. Confusion causes panic. And panic will be worse than this pendemic. Some social media posts are sending fear tremors that Pakistan is worst hit and its going to get worst. Wrong. Pakistan is not worst hit so far. How things will shape up, we don't know but so far so good as far as Pakistan is concerned. Govt and individual steps are all in good direction. Purposefully, remaining inside vehicle, I drove around 250 kilometrs from Islamabad to Western rural areas of my hometown Attock yesterday and found that there is serious need of awareness to impose social distancing. People were out in numbers on bikes and small cars for picnics, clearly not taking the pendemic seriously. Whereas, administration has imposed strict control on partial lock down. Except food and pharmacies no businesses were allowed to remain open starting from cosmetics store of Save Mart in Bahria Town, Rawalpindi to leather goods shops at Gondal village. Rest all seems in good order. It is time of solidarity. Those who strongly support total lock down must give alternative measures to Govt (PM & his team of advisers) addressing their logic of lack of resources to feed daily wage workers instead of criticism for the sake of criticism. So let's call it time out for criticism and time in for constructive and practical solutions. 
Personally, being supporter of total lock down, here is asuggestion to Govt to study people's model in Karachi. Iqrar ul Hasan started free packed box food distribution for poor, needy and those dependent on Abdullah Shah Ghazi Mazar for food. The packing company wala made boxes for free. Then people of wealth began to pour in money for distribution of free food. May Allah bless all of them. So, even if we head for total lock down, this nation will come up with solutions. This nation has a lot of strength which it showed during natural calamities of earthquakes, floods, IDPs situations and while fighting all sorts of extremism whether religious, liberal, hindu, socialist, capitalist, sectarian (KSA & Iran) etc. This nation didn't budge. Only time they get divided is when they get entrapped by fancy talk and deceitful hope promoses of politicians who are no where to be seen in these testing times. Let's hope, Insha Allah after recovering from this pendemic, this nation stops being deceived & divided by politicians for short term ecoonmic and political gains. 
Many people are relating and few are asking about relation of this pendemic with end of times. Yes, the signs are obvious but right now May Allah protect this nation, just one more time and may be then it might be able to play its role towards impending scenarios but right now getting through this phase is extremely important.
Please see regularly updates on below site which is authentic and remain current on the spread of this pendemic.
PS: Urdu translation video of this blog will Insha Allah follow.
Spread hope. 
Only Allah knows the whole Truth
