2020 was a year of a devastating pandemic, that brought the world we live in to a standstill. But it’s also been a year of remarkable scientific achievement, never seen before collaboration and community participation.

Each country’s COVID fight tells a different and unique story – in terms of sheer numbers, India has had over 10 million coronavirus cases. India has lost over 1.5 lakh lives to COVID, but if one looks at percentages, the fatality rate remains below 1.5 percent, among the lowest in the world.

As we look back at the year that was, I am joined by some of the biggest names in public health in India today.
