Covid Relief Nepal - Support HHC
The current COVID-19 crisis in Nepal is increasingly dire and we urgently ask for your help so that Himalayan HealthCare (HHC) can alleviate the vast suffering caused by the pandemic in Nepal.
OVERVIEW OF THE CRISIS.
Nepal currently has the second highest rate of infection in the world with about a 50% positivity rate. With a population of only 28 million, our daily infections currently average well over 9000, with over 200 deaths per day. The death toll among the young, including children, is increasing rapidly.
HOW HHC IS HELPING.
Our focus is to help the moderately or mildly ill in the isolation camps of Dhading District, through municipal partners and the District Health Office, who can be saved from sliding into severe illness by providing oxygen and medicines such as antiviral drugs, steroids, and pain medications. HHC is working to fill many needs by identifying sources for these crucial goods including PPE, thermal guns, pulse oximeter, oxygen concentrators, etc. The quickest we can get us the machines would be in early June.
The greatest need is for oxygen supportive care since the biggest challenge for many COVID-19 patients is breathlessness. The oxygen concentrator machines filter the surrounding air, compressing it to the required density, and then deliver purified medical-grade oxygen in continuous stream to the patient.
HOW YOU CAN HELP.
HHC has history of disaster relief since 1996. Every contribution, no matter how small, can help us.
• $10 can help us buy masks and gloves;
• $20 allows us to provide full PPE for a health provider;
• $50 to $100 helps a patient with a full range of medicine, depending on severity;
• $1000 can help us purchase critical oxygen concentrator machines; $20 can help upkeep the machines continuously for a week
