Union Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan on HealthCare Heroes Awards 2020
The honourable Union Health Minister of India Dr. Harsh Vardhan graced the function with his presence and words of appreciation. He said: “It is my pleasure to be present here at the Healthcare Heroes Awards to honour and salute the services of India's Corona Warriors. Our battle against COVID-19 has found strength with the contributions of thousands of frontline warriors. Govt under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi remains committed to our health personnel as well as support & augment healthcare and diagnostic structure to battle the pandemic. We expect a vaccine in the coming months. I take this opportunity to salute all the corona warriors of the country & in particular, their mothers and family members, who always encouraged them to contribute towards the success of the fight against COVID-19. I want to congratulate organizers who have chosen this initiative of boosting the morale of those who work silently and resiliently in our fight against COVID-19.”
