Nepal reported its first coronavirus death late Saturday - a 29-year-old woman who recently gave birth - as the total number of people infected in the country reached 281.

The victim - who was from Sindhupalchowk district, some 90 kilometres from the capital Kathmandu - was on her way to a hospital for treatment when she died.

The woman gave birth at a hospital in Kathmandu on 6 May and then returned to her home district a day later. She was treated at a local hospital after suffering from fever and respiratory problems. When her condition worsened, she was referred to another hospital. Nepal, which has a population of 28 million, has conducted fewer than 100,000 tests so far. Experts say the lack of mass testing may have prevented identification of other fatalities.

People in Australia must stay at least 1.5 metres away from others. Check your state’s restrictions on gathering limits.
