India is sending more than 100 million in aid to the United States

News Desk: The United States is sending more than 100 million (US) worth of medical supplies to India to help combat the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic.

The White House said in a statement on Wednesday. The aid will begin arriving in India on Thursday and will continue until next week, the statement said. Assistance materials sent by the Biden administration include 1,000 oxygen cylinders, 1.5 million N95 masks, and 1 million rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs).

The US administration has also directed the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca to send its own order of vaccine materials to India. With them, Indians will be able to produce at least 20 million doses of corona vaccine. The White House said in a statement that the United States was committed to helping India in times of need, in the same way that India sent aid to our hospitals at the beginning of the epidemic.

The Corona Tsunami has been raging in India for the past few weeks. Last Wednesday, more than 3 lakh 80 thousand people were newly identified as corona positive. The world has never seen a record of so many people being infected with corona in one day.

India has also crossed the horrific milestone of two lakh deaths due to coronation. At such a high rate of infection, Indian hospitals are struggling to contain patient stress.

Added to that is the terrible crisis of oxygen. Almost every day there are patient deaths due to lack of oxygen. Several countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, have announced their support for India in such a catastrophe. Even the 'eternal enemy' Pakistan has forgotten the division and wanted to help its neighbors.
