| COVID-19 remains a health emergency and a deadly threat, especially to the most vulnerable. By setting up dedicated medical facilities to treat COVID-19 patients in Mumbai and Bihar, we are working hard to save lives.
|
| MSF, in collaboration with NDTV, has initiated a drive to fight against the coronavirus outbreak in India. Join the ‘Unite Without Borders’ campaign to help us in containing the outbreak in the country by providing PPE kits, essential medical equipment, sanitation facilities, health education and hygiene kits to keep thousands of the most vulnerable people protected.

| COVID-19 response in Bihar |
|
In response to the rising number of people with COVID-19, MSF has opened its first 100-bed treatment centre in Bihar. Managed by 180 MSF staff from across the country, this centre will increase the existing capacity within Bihar to look after these patients with lifesaving treatment. This video shows our journey from Day 1 at Patliputra Sports Complex to the opening of this COVID-19 facility.
