🚨🇳🇵 HIV testing in Nepal dropped 34% in the first half of 2025 after USAID programs were terminated and Global Fund grants delayed. The most significant decline is among the high-risk groups most at risk for contracting HIV.
Years of progress against HIV are being erased.

So if Nepal were to learn something from Portugal, it could create some beautiful public spaces for the natural attractions of each town—a lot of small hiking trails, I’d think. These public pools built into the lava rock shores are incredible.

In Nepal, E. coli (64.7%) & K. pneumoniae (15%) resist amoxicillin >95%. E. coli resists gentamicin 7.4%, nitrofurantoin 12.2%; K. pneumo resists gentamicin 12%, nitrofurantoin 64%.🦠##idsky
Antibiotic resistance patterns in uropathogens: insights from a Nepalese tertiary care setting
:Antimicrobial resistance in uropathogens is increasing globally, particularly in resource-limited settings such as Nepal, limiting treatment options.Objectives:This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance patterns of uropathogens isolated from patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs) in a tertiary care hospital in central Nepal.Design:This study utilized a retrospective study design.Methods:We retrospectively observed medical records from August 2023 to February 2024 at Manmohan Memorial Teaching Hospital in Nepal, focusing on patients with significant bacterial growth in urine samples and antibiotic sensitivity analysis for resistance trends.Results:Escherichia coli (E. coli) (64.7%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) (15.0%) were the most common uropathogens. Both showed the highest resistance to amoxicillin (>95%), while E. coli demonstrated the lowest resistance to gentamicin (7.4%) and nitrofurantoin (12.2%). Klebsiella pneumoniae also showed low resistance to gentamicin (12.0%) but higher resistance to nitrofurantoin (64.0%).Conclusion:Empirical therapy, including nitrofurantoin and aminoglycosides, is a viable option for combating antimicrobial resistance in Nepal, necessitating region-specific surveillance and multicentre studies.

The sky caves in Nepal 🇳🇵, dating back at least 2,000 years, dot the cliffs of Mustang, and are ancient man-made caves numbering around 10,000. Speculated purposes range from burial sites to meditation spots or storage areas, yet their true age and function remains unknown.
