&lt;p&gt;The President’s condition is stable, and a team of specialists is monitoring his health, the statement said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dr. Asim Hussain confirmed that after multiple medical tests, it was established that President Zardari had contracted COVID-19. Due to an infection and high fever, he was admitted to a private hospital where further medical examinations were conducted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reports indicate that President Zardari had offered Eid prayers in Nawabshah on Monday but avoided meeting visitors due to health concerns. His treatment is being overseen by Dr. Asim Hussain.&lt;/p&gt;
