It is early morning in Dullu, Dailekh, when Dr Pooja BC’s phone begins to ring. As one of four physicians at Dullu Hospital, she is on the frontline of Nepal’s Covid-19 pandemic. Her phone continues to ring all day: she gets test reports from the lab and health coordinators in the district, and she coordinates logistics and stays updated on patients. Her work requires her to supervise a team of 38 and juggle her time between managing the outpatient department and the isolation wards.
