ISLAMABAD: As the Covid-19 positivity rate in the federal capital surpassed 8pc, the district administration on Sunday decided to impose smart lockdowns in high-risk areas.
Besides, it also sealed a number of businesses and two educational institutions.
“We have sealed an academy and a school as there were more than three cases in each of them. Now we are going to impose a smart lockdown in the city as the positivity rate is continuously rising,” Deputy Commissioner Hamza Shafqaat said.
He said earlier the UK variant was being reported but now patients with Delta (Indian) strain were surfacing, which was more virulent.
