I’m surprised no one on the EA Forum has been talking about the ongoing COVID-19 crisis in India. A year ago, we as a community were monitoring COVID-19 even before it hit North America and Europe. But the pandemic isn’t over, and in fact, the number of new cases in India has shot up about 20x since February. (Source: Google search as of 2021-04-30)
This fundraising page has been shared with me via social media, and the interventions it supports seem very promising (e.g. supplying oxygen to patients, donating food to hungry families). I’m curious about other things EAs can do to help.

I just donated US $30 to the GiveIndia oxygen supply fundraiser. Inspired by this thread
