مستخلص: Background: COVID-19 has radically changed the globe. This virus has a powerful impact on almost every country in the world. The most significant hurdle arises for the overall capacity of a disease control when the number of cases peaks during each wave of the pandemic. There are various waves that have occurred in the preceding period, each of them is characterized by a distinct variant of the virus. For a developing country like Pakistan COVID-19 ruins every sector of the country. There is a proper need for care and protection from this virus as guided by the World Health Organization (WHO). The spread rate is different in every country based on various factors. Two or more factors are required to trigger a high infection rate. Methods: The data sourced from the National Command and Operations Center (NCOC) was focused on analyzing the data from the four waves of COVID-19 in Pakistan encompassing reported cases, death and testing capacity. Utilizing the SPSS software, a comprehensive examination of these factors was performed. Results: The data of four waves has been analyzed including reported cases, no. of death, and testing capacity of the country. The data analysis reveals there is a strong correlation between these factors. By the interpretation of the data, it reveals upcoming waves are more dangerous than earlier due to new mutations. Conclusion: The virus is evolving to become more contagious and infectious in each consecutive wave. Vaccination should be considered compulsory for everyone to win the battle against the virus. Data analysis revealed a correlation between the number of cases and passage of time, showing that the new waves will emerge earlier and have a significant impact on the country.
