CONCLUSION:
The government of Pakistan started taking preventive measures against COVID-19 before its outbreak in the country, and its response was considered satisfactory by WHO up until March 14’2020. But despite having preventive measures in place well before time, there has been a rapid increase in number of confirm positive cases of COVID-19 in Pakistan. The growth seems to go higher than what our study predicts, but slower than predicted by earlier researchers. However, Pakistan has opened CPEC, construction and skilled labour industry to relieve its economic burden, which in turn may worsen the COVID-19 situation in the country. Hence, the upcoming month is of considerable importance in epidemiological spread of COVID-19 in Pakistan. How will Pakistan manage both its COVID-19 cases and economy, is a situation to monitor. Also, a question that should be further investigated is the cause of less than expected spread of COVID-19 in Pakistan, compared to other active outbreak countries.
