Afghanistan also shuts down all schools New virus countermeasures March 15 4:41
The Afghan government has decided to close all schools and educational institutions in the country until next month to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus.
He also clarified its policy to ban sports events and public gatherings for the time being.
In Afghanistan, 10 people have been confirmed to have been infected with the new coronavirus so far, mainly in the western Herat Province, which borders Iran, where infection is severely spread.
On the other hand, there are voices of concerns about how far the spread of the infection can be dealt with as the insurgency in the Taliban-controlled areas and the insurgency of the rebels cannot be monitored and the conflict within the government is deepening.
