Pakistani cab drivers in Spain provide free services to medical staff amid coronavirus panic

As a gesture of altruism during the global pandemic, Pakistani drivers in Barcelona are providing their services free of charge to medical staff and nurses fighting the coronavirus on the frontlines.

In a tweet shared by actor Nadia Jamil, an international publication has reported how Pakistani drivers wait for medical staff outside hospitals to facilitate their commutes.

In the video shared, a Pakistani cab driver is shown facilitating medical staff. The cabbie later introduces himself and describes the sentiment behind the free-of-charge services.

“My name is Syed Sheraz and I am from Pakistan. There are hundreds of Pakistani drivers, along with me, providing social services in Barcelona during this time. Whenever a calamity strikes, we are always ready to provide our services to the host country.

"In 2017, there was a terrorist incident, even at that time Pakistanis provided residents social services, by giving them free rides," he said.

He said that as Spain became the third hardest-hit country by the COVID-19, Pakistani drivers working there decided to give free of cost service to medical staff.
