The Ghazi Elahi Bakhsh Degree College in Mirpur was sealed due to a covid-19 case. A few teachers concealed the fact that they tested positive for the corona virus and were coming to the college. Their condition wasn’t severe enough to keep them in bed; so they went to work anyway to save their paid annual leave. The 10 days of isolation recommended after covid would’ve used up most of their compensated leave. Some companies abroad are offering weekly covid tests to their employees followed by a 2 week leave, in case they test positive, with no deduction in salary.
