ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan has taken a coronavirus test, ARY News reported, citing sources.

Medical experts from the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital took his sample for the deadly disease.

Prime Minister Khan decided to get tested after the Edhi Foundation’s chairperson Faisal Edhi, who called on him last week, was diagnosed with the virus.

Earlier, on April 15, Mr Edhi met with Prime Minister Imran Khan in Islamabad to present him with a Rs10 million cheque for the Corona Relief Fund.

Speaking at a media briefing this evening, the premier’s focal person on Covid-19 Dr Faisal Sultan confirmed PM Khan will undergo the coronavirus test.

The Sindh Health Department today revealed the coronavirus report of Faisal Edhi has turned out to be positive. His son Saad Edhi in a statement said that Faisal Edhi is in Islamabad and doing better.

“He has not been admitted to any hospital and is self-isolating,” he added.
