Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is putting faith in the assistance that the US government has pledged for India during the crisis.
Satya Nadella, the chief executive officer of Microsoft, on Monday extended a helping hand to India as it faces the second Covid-19 wave with over 3 lakh active cases emerging daily. Microsoft CEO has announced the company will support the purchase of “critical” oxygen concentration devices” in addition to continuing support through aid relief efforts, technology, and other resources. The announcement comes as India is facing an acute shortage of medical oxygen. In a tweet, Nadella said he is “heartbroken” by the current situation of India. Here is his full tweet: “I am heartbroken by the current situation in India. I’m grateful the U.S. government is mobilizing to help. Microsoft will continue to use its voice, resources, and technology to aid relief efforts, and support the purchase of critical oxygen concentration devices.” India is reporting daily over 3 lakh Covid-19 positive cases, where states such as Delhi, Maharashtra, and Uttar Pradesh are contributing to 70 per cent of cases. In this time of crisis, different nations have come forward to support India. Nadella has highlighted the efforts the US government is making towards India’s worsening Covid-19 situation. The US government has finally steered away from the “America First” stance after the controversies and said it will help India.
