Singer turned activist Shehzad Roy has appealed to his followers to practise social distancing to save themselves from contracting the coronavirus.
In a video message posted to social media, Roy said, “I got the opportunity today to go to CM House, Sindh and meet the task force dealing with the coronavirus. I was very happy to see how serious the government is and it really is a serious situation.
“I want to request everyone not to shake hands with each other even if someone wants to. Don’t do it, even if they feel insulted. Don’t get together for weddings or religious reasons,” he asserted. “On my way, I could see that everyone was at Sea View beach like it’s New Year’s or a holiday, people were celebrating.”
He added, “We need to behave like ashraful makhlookat. This is a very dangerous situation. We don’t want to panic but we also need to save each other; we don’t want things to get so bad that we need to go on lockdown.”
“Lets practice social distancing and try to infect the least number of people.”
Meanwhile, other celebrities are also advising people to practise self-isolation.
