While the second wave of coronavirus claimed as many as 105 lives — the second-highest since the disease outbreak — in the past 24 hours, Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Health Dr Faisal Sultan said on Wednesday Pakistan was passing through the same situation it had faced in June.

Earlier, the highest number of deaths was reported on June 15 when the first wave had reached its peak, claiming 124 lives in a day and making the June 8 toll of 90 deaths the second highest.

With over a hundred more deaths, the countrywide death toll from COVID-19 has now jumped to 9,010.
