My friends in #AcademicMedicine. I am from Nepal. You must have heard and read regarding the state of affairs of COVID in India. Nepal is headed in the same direction. While India is a larger economy with more resources at its disposal Nepal is the exact opposite. #COVID #LMIC
Thinking of the possibilities in the coming weeks in Nepal wrenches my heart. There is already a short supply of Oxygen reserves, Steroids, Remdesivir, Anticoagulants, and basic resources. To date, only <5% of the country's population has been immunized. #COVIDNepal
I am sure the state is no different in other #LMICs. I would hereby urge for aid, urge for a global effort to pull countries like Nepal out of a disaster. A delay or a denial can be disastrous beyond imagination. We are already seeing the unfolding of events of #COVID19India.
