Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday assured the people that the government has paid special attention to keep them safe from coronavirus amid apprehensions of deterioration of the situation in winter.

She said the government will procure a vaccine as soon as it is available and has already paid in advance to get the vaccine once it is ready.

"We've given special attention to how to secure people [from coronavirus] putting aside other issues … So, the people of the country don't need to be anxious," she said while opening various development projects, including three bridges, in Magura, Narayanganj, Jashore and Pabna via video conference from the Gono Bhaban.
