Is the crew tested before their travels or only after they arrive back with symptoms? The symptoms may take a few days to develop so it may be that they were infected before they boarded.
I wonder how does PIA compare with other airlines like Qatar (which is doing a lot of flying around to repatriate etc) when it comes to infection numbers?
