“Hello friends, It is a hard time for Nepal. Since the first case of the COVID-19 pandemic was confirmed in Nepal on January 23th. The government of Nepal took steps to prevent a widespread outbreak of the disease, while preparing for it by procuring essential supplies, equipment, and medicine, upgrading health infrastructure, training medical personnel, and spreading public awareness. Quarantine centers and temporary hospitals are being set up across the country. Isolation wards, makeshift hospitals, and quarantine centers have been established throughout the country. Laboratory facilities are being upgraded and expanded. Since January, 68,015 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests have been performed in 20 laboratories across the country. As of 1 June 2020, a total of 1798 cases have been confirmed, affecting 52 of the 77 administrative districts. Two hundred and twenty of them have been confirmed recovered. Six people have died. I hope you are staying safe and healthy through these unusual times!”
