Kathmandu, Nepal

The decision has come in effect after review of the District Administration Office’s decision by the Council of Ministers. As per the Council of Ministers, the rate of spread of Covid-19 within Kathmandu Valley is extremely high, and 15 days minimum is recommended as that is the recommended time for isolation.
