Daily current affair 11/April/2020

Hey Readers,
Good morning everyone. I hope everyone is safe and I am very thankful for such a great response on my blogs far  better than my expectations.

WHO statement on India to refrain (stop) them self from  religious profiling of COVID -19 cases.

Let me explain now, why such a statement came from Mike Ryan (Director of emergency program WHO)
Because in India COVID -19 cases were linked with tabligh jamat in press everywhere and it generated a religious hatered against them leading to a man in Himanchal committing suicide and in UP a man was shot dead. So WHO told that we should not look at corona patients as  Super spreaders but we should have a compassion towards them.
{ These are WHO's point of view. I see it as 30 percent of confirmed cases are from tabligh jamaat and they should themselves come forward in front of government and get tested and treated if necessary.
Then only they will win our compassion.
Because the situation which is developed is not going to help anyone and is only going to ruin our country . }
