diseases within few hours to all, if there are not proper safety measures being adapted

 Lack of resources and experienced health care professionals,
 Limited facility for timely and coordinated response amongst local, civil and government
bodies,

 Lack of in-country laboratory facilities for confirmation of causative agents.
PREVENTION AND CONTROL
MEASURES
 Assessment of risk
 Source control
 Personal protection measures
 Patient transportation
 Sharps handling

 Environment cleansing
 Patient education
 Visitor education and management

GOVERNMENT RESPONSE
 Government restricted gathering of more than 25 people in any place, event or office.
 Government restricted the movement of the people from their houses, except for the essential
services.
 Cancellation of visit Nepal 2020 and postpone in near future
 Cancellation of SEE where number of students might have been gathered
 Extension of various isolation and quarantine station
 Airlift and quarantine to the students from China.
ANALYSIS OF THE
GOVERNMENT RESPONSE
 Delayed action for border closing
 Delay in procurement and acquisition of PPE and identification kit
 Lack of preparedness (despite so much time)
 Lack of proper facility (relying on government hospitals and response from security forces)
 Lack of awareness among the people
 Government has formed defensive action, which might slow down the spread of the disease
but offensive action to identify the infected isolation could protect the Nepalese people.
FINDINGS
 It has a huge impact on the world today
 The recent pandemic has been a huge impact in the today society
 The threat of the corona virus could be seen in Nepal as well
RECOMMENDATION
 The reservoir host of Corona Virus is not known. Evidence is accumulating that various bat
species may serve as a source of infection for both humans and wild primates.
 Person-to-Person transmission of Corona Virus requires direct contact with blood or other
virus containing body fluids; from a person who has developed signs and symptoms of Corona
Virus disease.
 Proper cleaning process if conducted from time to time could control the disease from
transmitting
 In the situation of such, government should declare the national emergency and provide
necessary food for the people who are unable to afford due to such situation by properly
identifying them.
