THE number of COVID-19 cases in Pakistan has jumped to 2,286 on Thursday (2), and the death toll stands at 32.
Punjab province has the highest number of cases at 845, followed by Sindh (743) and KP (276).
The country said that 107 patients have recovered from the disease so far.
Punjab's higher number of positive cases can be attributed to the fact that they have conducted nearly 15,000 Covid-19 tests while Sindh, even with the second-highest number of cases, has conducted nearly 7,000 tests.
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan's testing figures are lower than both Sindh and Punjab.
The country faces lack of testing kits and labs, federal Planning Minister Asad Umar said. He added that the current testing capacity was 280,000 which was expected to increase to 900,000 by April 15.
Meanwhile, Special Assistant to the prime minister on health Dr Zafar Mirza had announced that the government would acquire a synthesiser in a few weeks which would enable the country to start producing testing kits on its own.
