Episode Synopsis "COVID-19 and the festival season in Nepal"

After featuring two experts from Nepal earlier this year, we recently spoke with Dr. Anup Subedee, who gave an overview of the development of the pandemic in Nepal since its first case was detected in January 2020 and analysed the current situation, only a few weeks before the start of two of Nepal's most important religious festivals. Dr Subedee is an internist and infectious diseases physician, also trained in public health, who currently works in Kathmandu, Nepal. He has been writing actively on issues related to pandemic preparedness and critiquing the government's response in Nepal over the last nine months.
