Nepal recorded its first coronavirus-related death, the country’s health ministry said late Saturday.
The victim was a 29-year-old woman from a district bordering the capital, Kathmandu, the ministry said in a statement.
Nepal has been under a nationwide lockdown since March 24, with borders to both India and China sealed. So far, 291 coronavirus cases have been reported in the country, according to Johns Hopkins University’s tally.
