India’s Health Care System Beginning to Collapse

“India was initially seen as a success story in weathering the pandemic, but the virus is now racing through its population of nearly 1.4 billion, and systems are beginning to collapse,” the AP reports.

“In addition to oxygen running out, intensive care units are operating at full capacity and nearly all ventilators are in use. As the death toll mounts, the night skies in some Indian cities glow from the funeral pyres, as crematories are overwhelmed and bodies are burned in the open air.”

Overseeing an unspeakable tragedy is something that Modi, Bolsonaro and Trump have in common.
