Following this, a micro-smart lockdown has been imposed in the affected schools. The process of random sampling and contract tracing of other students, teachers, and staff at different schools has begun as well.

Pakistan reopened classes nine to 12 on January 18 after a closure of over a month.

In a recent NCOC meeting, the education ministers of all provinces agreed that no students will be passed until they appear for their exams this year. For this reason, grades nine to 12 were reopened earlier as these students will soon be appearing for assessments.
