Our nation is struggling with the second wave of COVID-19. In this situation the most important sector is healthcare. To win the battle against this virus, we need better healthcare services that are easily available to the people. Our doctors and medical staffs are doing their best but being in the society it is our prime duty to serve society and giving our little bit contribution to our nation.
