Ayaz Gul

   ISLAMABAD - Officials in Pakistan have estimated that nationwide
   confirmed cases of COVID-19 infections could reach up to 1.2 million by
   the end of July, urging the nation to strictly comply with safety
   guidelines to help reverse the rising trajectory of new cases.
   The national tally of infections has surpassed 140,000, with about
   2,700 deaths, since late February when the coronavirus pandemic reached
   the South Asian nation of 220 million people.
