Washington: The CEOs of about 40 major American corporations have grouped together to form a global task force to mobilise capital and organise efforts to help India in its fight against COVID-19.
The task force, which is made up of the US-India Business Council of the US Chamber of Commerce and the US-India Strategic and Partnership Forum and Business Roundtable, committed to getting 20,000 oxygen concentrators to India in the coming weeks during its meeting in Washington on April 26.
The ‘Global Task Force on Pandemic Response: Mobilizing for India’, a US public-private initiative will provide India with vital medical equipment, vaccines, oxygen, and other life-saving assistance in the wake of an unexpected increase in coronavirus cases.
