It Is The Responsibility Of Each Citizen To Join The Fight: Kamal Sanghvi of Rotary International

Kamal Sanghvi, Director, Board of Rotary International joined the #UniteWithoutBorders telethon, organised by NDTV and MSF and said that fighting against COVID-19 is right now the most important cause for each person. He asserted that as much support as possible should be extended to Doctors Without Borders. He acknowledged MSF's work in the state of Bihar where the organisation is creating COVID-19 facilities to look after the patients.

*Disclaimer: NDTV is the broadcast partner for a 2-hour telethon by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) to raise donations to combat COVID-19 virus. The donations are received by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and shall be utilized according to a plan prepared and monitored by them. 

 

NDTV has no role to play in the use of donations and will not be liable for any claim(s) made by any person or entity, including any statutory or governmental authority, aris ing out of the collection or utilization of these donations.

 

The global prices for Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) have been fluctuating  dramatically since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Because of this the price mentioned for a full PPE kit - face protection, goggles and mask or face shield, gloves, gown or coverall, head cover, rubber boots - may not reflect the final purchase price. As well as being able to procure PPE in necessary numbers, MSF also requires it to be of a necessary standard. The volatility of the global PPE market is likely to continue, which is why MSF has been calling for a form of regulation to allow equitable and reliable distribution of medical equipment and PPE that is of necessary minimum quality.

The cost mentioned is for a kit for a caregiver and not a single PPE kit.​​
