Islamabad: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Thursday broke ground for the construction of a 252-bed Isolation Hospital and Infectious Disease Center in Islamabad that will be completed in a record time of less than two months in collaboration and assistance from China, as reported by the news sources.
During the groundbreaking, PM also launched a mobile application for the federal capital through which the residents of Islamabad can access various services. The premier said that the isolation hospital will be constructed over 40-kanals of land near the National Institute of Health (NIH). It will be built by the Frontier Works Organisation (FWO) using pre-fabricated, light gauge steel structures.
He acknowledged the assistance offered by the Chinese government to construct the hospital in the form of $4 million while mentioning that the hospital is expected to be operational by May 10.
The project comprises seven patient blocks including 3 for women and 4 for men. It will also have a laboratory and a diagnostics block apart from a block to offer accommodation to paramedics and doctors. It will be developed as a fully air-tight facility with all doors to be operated through sensors to avoid any human contact.
