Local media such as the Kathmandu Post reported that the first confirmed cases among cabinet members occurred in Nepal, where Corona 19 is spreading explosively.



Nepalese Minister of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, Yogeshi Batarai, on his Facebook page the day before, said, "It was negative on the 5th test, but today I was confirmed by the test."



He was confident in quarantine, saying, "Nepal is a country without Corona 19," in February, during the early days of the corona 19 crisis, but was unable to avoid the recent virus spread.



When the first confirmed cases occurred in the cabinet, an emergency took place in the Prime Minister's office.



Recently, in the Prime Minister's Office, three aides, including chief, diplomatic, and media, and five most close to the prime minister, including chief secretary and photographer, were confirmed.



In Nepal last July alone, the number of new confirmed cases per day reached only 100-200, but the spread of quarantine control was eased from August.



The number of new confirmed cases recorded around 1,000 from mid-August, and the previous day, this number jumped to 5,8.
