Four South Korean trekkers and three guides disappeared in January after being hit by the avalanche in Hinku village, 150 km (90 miles) northwest of Kathmandu.

They were returning from a trek to the Annapurna Base Camp, one of&nbsp;Nepal's busiest destinations for adventure tourists.

The area is home to Mount Annapurna, the world's 10th highest mountain at 8,091 metres (26,545 feet) and is visited by thousands of foreign hikers and climbers every year.

Villagers spotted the two bodies of the South Korean trekkers on Saturday. They were found by the side of a river after the snow melted due to rising temperatures, police official Raj Kumar K.C. said.

"A rescue helicopter was used to bring the bodies today from the remote area," he told Reuters, adding that the bodies of one male and one female trekker will be handed over to the families after necessary legal formalities were completed.

Authorities earlier found the bodies of two of the&nbsp;Nepali guides who were part of the group.

Army spokesman Bidyan Dev Pandey said search and rescue personnel continued to look for the three other missing victims - two South Korean trekkers and a&nbsp;Nepali guide.

Trekking and mountain climbing is a key source of income and employment in cash-strapped&nbsp;Nepal.

The Himalayan nation has cancelled all trekking and mountain climbing activities this year amid a nationwide lockdown to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Nepal&nbsp;has reported 51 cases of coronavirus and no deaths.

Scientists across the globe have turned to sewage as the latest&nbsp;method to measure the prevalence of the hidden cases of the virus&nbsp;in their communities.

Several local governments in the US are also using the same method&nbsp;to&nbsp;detect traces of RNA, the genetic material of coronavirus, in fecal matter.

The data can be used to gain a sense of how many people may have had the virus asymptomatically and are passing it through, in addition to those testing positive because they are outwardly sick.

According to Matt Meyer, the County Executive of New Castle, his county in Delaware has partnered with Biobot, an MIT-based startup,&nbsp;to screen wastewater for coronavirus.

Biobot is testing sewage in 150 facilities across 30 states, according to a company spokeswoman.

In its pilot 24-hour test, Biobot estimated there were 15,200 cases of Covid-19 in New Castle County alone.

These results outweigh&nbsp;the 4,034 estimated number of confirmed cases in the state, as per the data of Johns Hopkins University.

Meanwhile, in the Syracuse area of New York, four professors across three universities have partnered up to test Onondaga County wastewater using a centrifugal process to isolate the virus, a process they say could significantly speed up detection of Covid-19 outbreaks.

Scientists in other countries have also been using their sewerage systems to conduct mass tests for coronavirus, though they express caution on how accurately wastewater samples reflect community levels of the virus.

In early April, the journal Nature reported&nbsp;that more than a dozen research groups around the world were analyzing wastewater for Covid-19, with traces of the virus found in wastewater in the US, Netherlands and Sweden.

Pacer spearhead Jofra Archer, who played an essential role in England's World Cup victory has now lost the medal he received after winning the cup.&nbsp;

Archer lost the medal while moving his house and said that he had "gone mad" looking for it.

He said: &nbsp;“I had it hanging off a portrait someone did for me and sent to me, I had my medal hanging on that.

“I moved flat and the picture is on the new wall but there’s no medal. I turned the house upside down for about a week but I still haven’t managed to find it.

“I know it should be in the house so I will keep eyes out for it but I’ve gone mad looking for it already.”

He revealed these details on a radio show.&nbsp;

During the World Cup campaign, Archer scalped 20 wickets at 23.05 the most taken by any member of the champions’ squad.

Archer had bowled the decisive super over in the finals and asked when he knew he’d been chosen for the Super Over, replied: “Pretty late. I wasn’t sure until I had to go down there and warm up.

“That doesn’t mean I didn’t want it, I just didn’t think I was in a position to volunteer. I was just coming into the team, I’d played the least amount of games in the squad. I didn’t think it was my time to volunteer.

“It was the only Super Over of the whole tournament, I never actually thought about it or planned for the situation, it just happened.”

Barca are unable to pay the 54 million pounds due to the financial impact of coronavirus, so they have decided to offer Spurs a chance to sign centre-back Samuel Umtiti and right-back Nelson Semedo.

Inter Milan also aims to buy a defensive midfielder, they showed interest in Barca midfielder Arthur. But Arthur has said that he will stay in Barcelona. Barca could also aim for N'golo Kante in an exchange for Philippe Coutinho.

Umtiti has been an&nbsp;interesting prospect to Spurs in the past but he has not made the impact he would have liked at the Nou Camp and has long struggle&nbsp;with injuries.

Anti-viral drug remdesivir which was being hailed as the cure for the novel coronavirus, has failed its first clinical test.

According to draft documents accidentally published by the World Health Organization,&nbsp;a Chinese trial showed that the drug did not improve patients' condition or reduce the pathogen's presence in the bloodstream.
