In a letter issued by Sindh health director general Dr Irshad Ahmed Memon, a copy of which is available with The Express Tribune, the heads of all public-sector hospitals have been asked to get their respective facility's staff tested for the coronavirus on priority basis. Another health department official, also emphasising the need for "immediate" screening of healthcare professionals, said the decision had come late. "Only a few are privy to this development," a health official, on condition of anonymity, disclosed to The Express Tribune. "And while we work in the health department, we don't have access to it."
