#SaluteOurSaviours, a campaign initiated to thank all our health workers & COVID caregivers for risking their lives to save ours. The year 2020 will always be remembered as the year a virus brought the world to its knees - locked down, shut away and isolated. But more than that, it will be remembered as the year the medical community and health workers across cities and villages stood bravely on the frontlines of a war against COVID.
