hotspot

The COVID-19 situation now seems to be normal in Banke remaining as one of the ‘hotspots’ for the pandemic.

Four COVID-19 patients died in the past 24 hours in Banke. According to District Covid Crisis Management Center’s resource person Tej Oli, of the deceased, three are from Banke itself while one is from Bardiya.

India’s medical oxygen shortage has become so dire that a Sikh house of worship began offering free breathing sessions with shared tanks to COVID-19 patients waiting for a hospital bed.
