Pink Eye

On Friday the Sindh health authorities have issued special guidelines to airports and airlines due to a rise in pink eye infection cases, as stated by Dr. Murtaza Shah, the director of provincial Border Health Services (BHS). The guidelines have been provided to medical staff and airlines.

Airlines have received instructions to direct infected passengers to contact the health department’s doctor at the airports. Dr. Shah emphasized that there is no travel ban imposed on passengers with Pink Eye.

Instead, the health department’s doctor will offer travel advice after examining the infected traveler.

Pink eye, which can be caused by a virus or bacteria, is highly contagious, spreading quickly from person to person.

People can reduce the risk of contracting or transmitting this infectious disease by following simple self-care measures.
