Summary

The state of California will send “life-saving oxygen equipment” to India, which is dealing with a deadly surge in COVID-19 cases.

We talk with California Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis about India’s coronavirus crisis, California’s efforts to help and what it will take to make a dent in the problem.
