PREFACE
Greetings from the desk of e-Newsletter – COVID-19: Science & Technology Efforts in India – on COVID-19, highlighting scientific, technological, and innovative efforts and research supports to mitigate and minimise the pandemic. Now we are armed with various weapons in our armour, like vaccines, therapeutics, immune boosters, and so on, to tackle the situation.
In the meantime, we continue compiling new information every fortnight on the pandemic to continue sensitising our readers about COVID-related latest developments. The aim is to inform the readers and strengthen the usefulness of the information. This edition contains compilation and coverage of information related to industry collaborations, significant research outputs, COVID communication, resources and outreach, along with fact-check questionnaires.
The collective strength of the nation and the service spirit of the frontline workers have ensured that we are coming out of the perilous situation. This pandemic has taught us to practice hand and respiratory hygiene. Till we hit ground zero on the transmission of the disease, we strictly need to adhere to additional COVID appropriate behaviour. We wish an engaging reading to our audiences across all strata of the society and look forward to their suggestions and feedback at covidnewsletter@vigyanprasar.gov.in.
