The Institute of Business Administration (IBA) Karachi has been closed after two students contracted the novel coronavirus.

Two days after it was reopened, two students tested COVID-19 positive. According to sources, the first case emerged in the hostel of the IBA's Karachi University campus. Both the students have been quarantined.
