The Covid19 second wave is no less than a Tsunami that has hit every nook and corner of India with thousands dying each day. From the health facilities, medical practioners, drug producers to the common man each one of us are dying a slow death. However, instead of living upto the expectations of the people of India and working in unison, we saw the Indian politicians and political parties playing petty politics.
Here we share the current situation and the response both from the International community as well as the action of our Indian government –
Covid19 Second Wave: Current CoronaVirus Situation in India –
- Lack of medical infrastructure
- Lack of oxygen cylinders
- Lack of crematoriums
- Lack of medicines and medical supplies
- Inadequate supply of vaccines
How the International Community is responding:
- The UK sending ventilators and oxygen concentrator devices
- European Union, France and Germany sending oxygen and medicine supplies

- UAE sending high capacity oxygen carrying tankers and O2 cylinders
- Russia is planning to fly out oxygen generators and concentrators

How the Indian Sarkar is responding:

- – Let’s build the Central Vista .. Yayy
- – Don’t scream if your people die
- – We will seize your property
