High risk of not vaccinating people in Nepal from COVID-19

Kathmandu. There are indications that the risk of Covid-19 spreading as a global epidemic is increasing. As the transition to the second wave of COVID-19 highs in the country continues to weaken, the numbers are expected to rise in the last few days.

The Ministry of Health and Population has pointed out that the risk may increase as the infection rate is increasing in different parts of the country. Joint spokesperson of the ministry Dr. Sameer Kumar Adhikari says that a difficult situation will be created if the vigilance is not maintained at this time.

Public health expert Dr. Ravindra Pandey estimates that this delta species will increase rather than the third wave coming due to the species change. As the infection has started to increase even in India, there is an example of its direct impact on Nepal.

It is said that the infection started to pick up speed as soon as the ban was lifted. Crowds of people have started to increase in the market and negligence in complying with the standards has started again. The fact that 1,376 more people were infected on Wednesday compared to four days ago is a sign that the risk is increasing.

There is not enough vaccine in the country. So far, 2.6 million people have been vaccinated with the first dose and 800,000 people have been vaccinated with the second dose, according to government figures. At this time, more and more citizens had to be vaccinated. He understands that those who have not been vaccinated in the current wave will be at greater risk as that is not possible.
