As I write this the Manaslu team is just about to head up to base camp. It's roughly a 7 hour hike. They are anxious to get out of the village as sanitary conditions are poor at best. The good news is the expedition cook "makes awesome food". Blessings and prayers have been bestowed upon them by the local monastery. The plan is to hang out at base camp for 3 days.
There are problems with the satellite phone they are using. If, as they go higher up in elevation, the reception does not improve, they will have another phone sent up with a Swiss expedition that will be following them sometime within the next week. It is possible that there will be no news for a while.
