This is a zoom recording of a lovely and fascinating conversation between two global health leaders, Purnima Mane and Geeta Rao Gupta, as they reflect on how India’s cultural and structural barriers - particularly towards girls and women - have enabled SARS CoV2 to spread so widely. While the headlines may have faded away, the huge damage done by this pandemic are far from over.
