Nepal has recorded 10,258 new coronavirus infections, government data showed, the highest number reported in a single day as the government projects the tally could double by the end of the month.
Total infections on Tuesday topped 972,198 and COVID-19-related deaths stood at 11,624. The previous daily record was 9,483 cases in May last year.
Authorities extended a ban on large public gatherings in the hill-ringed Kathmandu Valley, home to more than four million people, until February 12 from January 29 to try to control the spread of the virus.
