— Pete Lau (@PeteLau) April 30, 2021 “At the moment, the need of the hour continues to be support in terms of oxygen concentration devices and relief funds. Recognizing this, we will procure and donate 400 oxygenators to help alleviate the immediate need for oxygen in the country,” wrote Pete in the post. Apart from this, OnePlus has also started a “GiveIndia” initiative with the aim to “help patients breathe as they battle COVID.” So, with this initiative, the company plans to raise relief funds for COVID-19 patients and frontline workers. The funds can be donated by community members and the company will match donations equally up to Rs 1 crore. Meanwhile, if you live in India and are above 18, you can register for the third phase of the vaccination drive, which kicks off tomorrow (May 1) in the country.
