His statement came while referring to Dr. Aarati Lalchandani's viral video
Kuwait: Member of Kuwaiti National Assembly, Mohammad Haif Al Mutairi has called on his country’s Health Minister to cut-off ties with India in the health sector. He has cited that the hatred against Muslims in India and specifically in Hindutva doctors have constantly grown amidst COVID-19 pandemic which Kuwait had not expected.
In a tweet from his handle, Haif added that Kuwait had not expected that the health sector would be affected to this extent against Muslims.
He was referring to the video of Dr. Aarati Lalchandani, whose video had recently gone viral showing her passing hateful comments against Muslims and Tablighi Jamat members.
Hayef called on the Health Minister to stop contracting in the Health sector with India and also called for reconsidering the existing contracts with the country.
Director of the Center for Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law in Kuwait, Mujeel Alshrika wrote on twitter, “Powerful Kuwaiti Parliamentarian @mhamdhaif demands the Nation's health ministry to immediately halt all health service-related contracts with India. This is due to the growing hatred of Hindutva doctors towards Muslim patients. Deliberate manslaughter feared @indembkwt @hrw @ndtv”.
تزايدت في الآونة الأخيرة وتيرة الكراهية عند الهندوس ضد المسلمين لكن لم نتوقع أن تصل للمجال الصحي ولهذا المستوى من الحقد والكراهية لذلك يجب على وزير الصحة وقف التعاقد مع الجاليةالهندوسية وإعادة النظر في العقود الحالية وتحمل المسئولية في عدم التهاون في حماية مرضانا من أي ضرر محتمل https://t.co/x1HmZGgkVR

Pakistan reports two more polio cases; Total tally now 52
ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.
“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.
The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.
“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.
Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.
There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
