Today starts the 1st day of #lockdown-free day after a completely failed 4-month attempt at mitigating the spread of d #coronavirus.

Something that& #39;s been reaffirmed dramatically AGAIN in these 7-month times of d #pandemic & a question I have is this:

#Nepal #COVID19Nepal

.2/
Governments of #Nepal & our leadership,
throughout pretty much d entire
history, have not really cared sufficiently
abt--& valued--d lives of d ppl.

Not even by those since 1990, when we
have had "democracy" but little
difference in d caste of those in power!

Generation after generation of that,
even d quakes of 2015--d biggest
natural calamity in living memory--
didn’t change any of that as expected.

In d aftermath, for lack of assistance etc.
some ended up killing themselves unable
to keep going, unable to endure d pain.

.4/
Apparently, during d #lockdown,
monthly suicide rate increased by 30%.

(How much of d hardships faced
by d population will be alleviated REALLY
by opening d country up for
business when there does NOT appear
to be any CONCRETE strategy?) https://twitter.com/Dorje_sDooing/status/1285223944102920192">https://twitter.com/Dorje_sDo...

.5/
Reason behind countries that opened up
but didn& #39;t suffer through a 2nd
wave was their implementation of an incredibly
regimented, protocol-driven, &
successful MITIGATION program during #Lockdown:
#MassTesting, #ContactTracing, & #Isolating.

What did we get instead? #COVID19

.6/6
Corruption, zero strategy,
& power struggles.

I would be impressed if they have
any kind of strategy to manage
the pandemic going forward.

There& #39;s absolutely no reason to.
They are likely just counting on
the people to "ride it through."
