Kathmandu Is Running Out of Breath, and So Is Nepal’s Health System

The concrete jungle is covered with layers of polluted haze as anyone would gaze from the hilltop of Swayambhu or any of the hill stations surrounding the valley. The density of haze increases further when one starts climbing up the hills, reducing visibility, dampening the green hill slopes that surround the bowl-shaped valley. With an increase in pollutant levels in the atmosphere, which ultimately thickens the air, it results in flight delays, schools are forced to stop physical classes, and a thick layer of pollutants swamps the faces of commuters. This alarming situation often leads people to the emergency wards of government hospitals, exceeding the typical occupancy limit. The fact that Nepal's air crisis has escalated from an environmental issue to a national health emergency is a deep concern.
