If health workers fall, society will fall
No one amongst us is more important than our health workers right now. If they start falling, our society will be defenceless against coronavirus. 500 health workers have already been infected. Their demand for adequate PPE must be our 1st priority. #WeStandWithHealthWorkers

Above all, people in Pakistan are paying rich tribute to the front line warriors. However, journalists, doctors, civil society, and almost every educated person is urging the government to provide facilities to the health care workers.
Furthermore, the ration of positive cases among health care workers is soaring. Currently, there is no approved drug or vaccine to treat the pandemic. Hence, the government must take bold steps to at least protect the health care workers.
