Iqbal said that the health system was facing the worst crisis today due to the collapse of Pakistan Medical and Dental Council. He added that the basic problems of doctors are being ignored. “The information I received from doctors today is alarming,” he further added.
He said that all the countries including the USA, Russia, Europe looked helpless in front of the deadly coronavirus. “The law enacted in Punjab is being used to privatize the health department. The concerns raised by the Young Doctors Association are justified,” he maintained.
