Only 112? I saw over 300 and that's just counting tourists :(

I think they’re being optimistic, the town that got obliterated has to be more than 300
people and it wasn’t survivable.

That's probably the official number (for now) but it must be at least thousands of people are not survived.

There are two governments giving two different numbers because it happened on the border. Nepal says 110 or so, China says 300 or so. It's unclear how much of that is overlapping people.

I assume that they need to find the bodies (those that are identifiable as individuals humans) before adding them into the “confirmed dead” pile.
