Additional Information / Shotlist India has just seen a surge of cases beyond anyone’s imagination. Behind me is the BKC jumbo covid facility. Which is where MSF provides medical support
What we saw as a challenge here was not the demand for oxygen, our center was well prepared for that as compared to other cities in India. What we faced as a challenge was the sheer number of cases that we were seeing every day. We were sometimes unable to provide beds to people who really needed it. Let this serve as a warning – we need to look at it in terms of prevention and in terms of emergency preparedness. Please follow social distancing and please wear a mask. I implore you to respect that as a show of solidarity.
