(Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) Nepal's New Coronavirus infection breaks 100

  China News Agency, Kathmandu, May 7 (Reporter Zhang Chenyi) The Ministry of Health and Population of Nepal announced on the evening of the 7th: There were 2 new cases of new coronavirus infections on the day, and a total of 101 cases nationwide.

  According to Adi Kari, the joint secretary of the ministry, the two new patients were a 16-year-old man and a 22-year-old man, both from the Lumbini region of southern Nigeria. Currently, they are being treated in medical institutions.

  Judging from the newly added cases in the recent period, the area adjacent to India in southern Nepal is a high incidence area. At the same time, there is also a case of "rejuvenation" of cured patients in Nepal, but fortunately, no deaths have occurred so far.

  In order to combat the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, the Nepalese government has extended the national blockade to May 18 and the international flight ban to May 31.

  However, the blockade of more than 40 days has also put a lot of pressure on Nepal's daily economic life. Therefore, the Nepalese government has also agreed to allow production units in 44 industries including food processing and petroleum liquefied gas to resume production from May 8. (Finish)
