It has procured and provided essential materials and equipment for COVID care centers and hospitals. I’ve set up a COVID Support Hotline to help people in rural areas in their local language with questions about COVID vaccines, how to get help and support, and how to deal with the loss of a loved one. The foundation has also purchased 500,000 rapid COVID tests from the US that are currently being used across India.
