He said that sugar and flour reports were of previous year. He said: "We are hopeful that this crisis will not occur this year."He said that there was much talent in Pakistani nation and our scientists and engineers were working for manufacturing dialysis machines. "We will also develop medical devices at our own whereas commercial production of ventilators will also start very soon," he added.

Fawad Ch said: "Early we were importing facemask N-95, but now it is being manufactured within the country. It is also a big achievement that we are manufacturing every item which is necessary against coronavirus within the country except ventilators. We are also hopeful that Pakistan will start manufacturing of ventilators within next few months."
