Abstract

The first case of Covid-19 in Nepal was confirmed on Jan. 23, 2020. Since then, Nepal has seen the worst health crisis, the change of governments, and the failure of policies. The former government had put in the first lockdown in April 2020 with impediments to the transmission of the virus in the country, which followed further policy measures in the coming months. However, the pandemic was not the only crisis that the citizens of Nepal faced. During the peak of waves and lack of resources, the government of Nepal received Covid funds from various countries and organizations around the world. However, the real challenge lied in utilizing the funds appropriately and rising above the corruption and internal political and economic tussle in the country.
