She said that, along with treatment, the centre would provide medical supervision, counselling, and comprehensive rehabilitation facilities.<br \/>\nDr. Azra Fazal Pechuho said that specialist doctors and trained medical staff would be available at the centre to continuously monitor patients. She further stated that the government wants to accelerate the HIV screening process so that more cases can be identified and timely treatment can be provided.<br \/>\nSindh Health Minister Dr. Azra Fazal Pechuho also said that even the death of a single person is deeply regrettable. If a patient at Jinnah Hospital lost their life due to negligence, a complete and transparent inquiry should be conducted into the incident. She said that only after the inquiry would it be possible to determine those responsible.<br \/>\nShe made it clear that considering the death of any patient as something insignificant is highly inappropriate, and she strongly condemned any such statement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58574 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"860\" height=\"1600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM.jpeg 860w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM-161x300.jpeg 161w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM-550x1024.jpeg 550w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM-768x1429.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/dailydigitalposts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-08-04-at-7.00.24-AM-826x1536.jpeg 826w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 860px) 100vw, 860px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karachi (Digital Post) Karachi Sindh Health Minister Dr. Azra Fazal Pechuho inaugurated a modern Opioid Agonist Maintenance Therapy (OAMT) Centre at Jinnah Hospital for the rehabilitation of drug-addicted individuals.
