Relaxing of prohibitory orders and decreasing adherence to public health and social
measures observed across the country, particularly outside Kathmandu Valley, in
contributing to concerns of a new spike in infections.
• Fear of disease transmission and movement restrictions remain major challenges for
patients to access non-COVID-19 health services.
• Daily food and other essential needs of vulnerable families affected by secondary
impacts of COVID-19 are largely unmet. Dry spell across western Nepal is
compounding food hardships, with winter crop production expected to drop by 40-80%.
• Construction of semi-permanent health desks is completed at two points of entry and
ongoing at three additional points of entry (PoEs).
• Eight young children have died in Sarlahi district due to lack of proper drainage systems
after falling in road depressions and drainage holes.
