Sir: As per media reports, more than fifteen people have been lost their lives after Chronavirus outbreak in China. Across the country, 688 cases of the new virus were diagnosed which brings the total number of confirmed cases to 1,975. Deaths from the coronavirus had previously been reported outside of Hubei, the outbreak’s epicenter. Chinese citizens are also haunted by the memory of the SARS epidemic in 2002 and 2003, a coronavirus outbreak that also started in China and eventually killed more than 800 people worldwide. Pakistan must keep an eye on this epidemic outbreak because we are the nearest neighbour of China and don’t have the capacity to cope with such outbreak. ZAHID CH Lahore
