The number of individuals suspected to have contracted the deadly coronavirus has risen to five in Pakistan with three of them admitted to Services Hospital Lahore, and two of them admitted to Nishtar Hospital Multan.

The three persons admitted to the Services Hospital are Chinese hailing from Wuhan, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, and their blood samples have been sent to a laboratory in Hong Kong for confirmation if the patients contract coronavirus or before their treatment could be started. Treatment can be initiated only after their medical reports are received within 24 to 48 hours, sources said. "All suspected patients are kept in isolation and intensive care to prevent the possible outbreak."
