Pakistan receives medical supplies from Chinese foundations to combat COVID-19
Pakistan receives medical supplies – ISLAMABAD (AP) – China has sent an aircraft full of medical personnel and supplies to help Pakistan combat the spread of coronaviruses in one of the most populous countries in the world. Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry said today on Saturday.
Chief Minister of Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah, Chinese Consulate General in Karachi, Li Bijian, representatives of Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority received 500,000 masks, including N95 masks, in the southern coastal city of Karachi, the capital of Sindh province.
More medical supplies from both organizations, including 50,000 test kits and several protective suits and thermometers, will arrive in Karachi this week, the Consul General on Twitter said.
There are concerns in the Middle East that health systems that have been disrupted by multiple wars, refugee crises and economic instability may face an increasing number of victims.
Iran is the most affected country in the region. On Saturday, state television reported 139 more deaths, bringing deaths to 2,517 out of 35,408 confirmed cases.
China has tried to present itself as a global leader in the fight against the outbreak that began a few months ago in the central province of Hubei in the country. The auxiliary aircraft is expected to land in Pakistan later on Saturday.
Pakistan is a key link in the ambitious Silk Road and Belt Initiative, which connects Central and South Asia with China. Beijing is also a major military supplier to Islamabad and is equipped with nuclear-capable missiles.
In Pakistan, with a population of 220 million, 1 321 cases of COVID-19, a virus-induced disease and 10 deaths, are confirmed. Most of the injured were those who traveled to neighboring Iran.
In most patients, coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms that disappear within 2-3 weeks. In some cases, especially in the elderly and people with previous illness, it can cause more serious illnesses such as pneumonia or even death.
Pakistan has closed its borders with Iran and Afghanistan but has received widespread criticism for its weak initial response to the crisis.
In Iran, the authorities insist on monitoring the situation despite concerns about the collapse of medical centers.
The Islamic Republic was criticized for not acting fast to keep the virus. Only in the last few days have authorities ordered unnecessary companies to close and ban urban travel, long after other countries in the region have taken more radical measures.
Among the areas of great concern is the Gaza Strip, which Israel and Egypt have besieged since the Islamic Resistance (Hamas) movement took power in 2007. Authorities reported nine cases of coronaviruses.
Health infrastructure in the Palestinian territories has been severely damaged by years of conflict and isolation. It can be very difficult to limit the outbreak of disease in a zone that has a population of over two million.
Another concern is Yemen, where the civil war has been going on for five years. Sudan, where the Ministry of Health confirmed two more cases, five in total.

Hiring an Electrician
Many homeowners attempt to do home improvement projects themselves, and the results are often disappointing. However, trying to handle electrical work independently can lead to costly errors and injuries. Discover a few things to check before hiring an electrician to get the job done right and stay within the budget.
Proper Training
When looking for an electrician, the first thing to consider is whether they are properly trained. The electricians should attend a vocational school or other recognized institute to learn how to perform the work correctly. Discuss the training process to find the right team for the job.
Review Experience
Comparing electricians includes reviewing their relevant experience performing similar work. Homeowners should discuss the project scope with potential electricians and determine whether they have experience in that area. Also, ask for recommendations and referrals from previous satisfied customers.
Check Reviews
Once homeowners have a list of prospects, check online reviews to narrow down the possibilities based on customer experiences. Often, people discover more about an electrician or other service providers by reading reviews and talking to others. Also, discuss referrals with neighbors, co-workers, friends, and families to determine which services handled the work most efficiently.
Licensed and Insured
Verify your state’s requirement for license and insurance and then ensure the electrician is compliant to protect your most valuable asset. It is often tempting to hire an unlicensed or uninsured electrician to cut costs, but that often adds up to spending more money in the long run. Plus, you could be liable if an accident or injury occurs on your premises, adding even more to the costs.
Verify Credentials and Permits
The first step to verifying an electrician’s expertise is to inquire about licenses and insurance. The next step is to verify these credentials and permits to ensure they are valid and current. A quality electrician will immediately provide documentation for customers to verify.
Talk to Several Electricians
After comparing reviews and verifying credentials, consult with several electricians to find the right one for the project. While all of them might be qualified for the job, homeowners should find an electrician that understands their vision and wants to work with them every step of the way. Take notes during the interviews to review and determine the best candidate for the job.
Compare Costs
While qualifications are crucial to getting the job done correctly, homeowners must also stay within their budget to avoid financial stress associated with unexpected surprises. An electrician should provide a precise estimate and include everything to be done to complete the project for homeowners to plan for payment. The goal is to find a qualified electrician that provides all the services needed for the most competitive price.
Look for Outstanding Customer Service
Finally, it helps to work with electricians dedicated to providing the highest level of customer service and that stand behind their work. Inquire about warranties and other guarantees to verify the project will be completed according to specifications. Then choose the electrician who communicates clearly and makes you feel comfortable about their skills.
Hiring an electrician is often critical to getting the job done right and avoiding additional costs related to injuries and errors. Use this checklist to find a qualified electrician that provides outstanding service within your budget.
