Coronavirus: Mt Everest climbers told to bring back empty oxygen tanks

Advertisement Kathmandu: Nepal is so short of oxygen canisters that it has asked climbers on Mount Everest to bring back their empties instead of abandoning them on mountain slopes. The Nepal Mountaineering Association has asked climbers to help Nepal deal with a second wave of COVID-19 cases that has brought the country’s fragile healthcare system to breaking point, as it has in neighbouring India where deaths held close to record highs. The association issued climbing permits to more than 700 climbers for 16 Himalayan peaks 408 to Mount Everest for the April-May climbing season in a bid to get the mountaineering industry and tourism back up and running.

Nepal urges Everest climbers to return used oxygen canisters amid Covid crisis

Kul Bahadur Gurung, a senior official with the NMA, said climbers and their Sherpa guides were estimated to have carried at least 3,500 oxygen bottles this season. These bottles often get buried in avalanches or are abandoned on the mountain slopes at the end of the expedition. “We appeal to climbers and sherpas to bring back their empty bottles wherever possible as they can be refilled and used for the treatment of the coronavirus patients who are in dire needs,” Gurung said. On Sunday, Nepal reported a daily increase of 8,777 infections, 30 times the number recorded on 9 April. The total caseload stands at 394,667 and 3,720 deaths, according to government data.

COVID-19: Nepalese PM loses vote of confidence as cases surge

COVID-19: Nepalese PM loses vote of confidence as cases surge Reuters, KATHMANDU Nepalese Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli on Monday lost a confidence vote in parliament, the speaker said, pitching the nation into political turmoil at a time when it is battling a major second wave of COVID-19 infections.

Political parties will now try to cobble together a new ruling coalition. Nepalese Parliament Speaker Agni Sapkota said that of 232 lawmakers present, 93 voted in favor of Oli, while 124 were against and 15 abstained.
