President Kovind said while the intensity of the pandemic has come down, but the coronavirus has not yet gone away. “We are yet to come out of the devastating effects of its recurrence this year.”
“I appreciate the hard work done by our doctors, nurses, health workers and other Corona warriors. Their service helped the country to control the second wave of Covid-19,” he said.
Appreciating the role of health workers during the pandemic, President Ram Nath Kovind said the country can take solace from the fact that more lives have been saved than the lives lost.
“It was our collective determination to overcome the challenge that helped us see the weakening of the second wave. Once again, our corona warriors, the doctors, nurses and health workers, the administrators, and others, risked everything to contain the impact of the second wave,” he said.
