The task force test

A task force chaired by Dr. Malik Mukhtar Ahmad Bharath was established to address systemic issues in Pakistan's healthcare system linked to rising HIV cases among children. Despite initial swift action and recommendations, there has been no official follow-through, and infections continue, with over 130 cases reported in Karachi alone. The HIV burden in Pakistan has grown significantly, with estimated cases rising from 67,000 in 2010 to 210,000-240,000 by 2021-2022.
