According to the details, the NCOC has recommended to limit all sorts of public gatherings, including political, religious, cultural, entertainment and civil society in nature, to a maximum of 500 people.

These recommendations came after meeting of the NCOC chaired by Federal Minister for Planning and Development Asad Umar regarding the surge in coronavirus cases in the country.

NCOC has once again recommended to ban all large public gatherings. Rapid increase in positivity requires urgent steps to save lives & livelihoods. Since mid October, when NCC first considered the NCOC recommendation to ban large public gatherings daily cases have nearly tripled

Some other suggestions by the NCOC include closure of temporary closure of shrines with immediate effect while also taking notice of the decline in compliance of standard operating procedures (SOPs) at mosques.

Moreover, the NCOC has also recommended immediate closure of cinemas and theatres across the country and the early closure of markets with designated safe days to take control of the spread of coronavirus.

“The national political leadership across the political spectrum needs to demonstrate leadership to send a message to the entire nation for taking preventive steps and follow SOPs”, urged minister Asad Umar.
