India is slowly recovering from the impact of the catastrophic second wave. Our healthcare infrastructure, even in our largest cities, collapsed under the weight of the unprecedented case count. One of the biggest gaps exposed was the availability and supply of oxygen that is so crucial to help the critically ill patients. While the situation has been brought under control in urban areas, there is tremendous concern for healthcare facilities as the pandemic second wave hits rural India.
