NEW YORK â The U.S. Defense Department is working on providing the direly needed oxygen to India which is in the grip of a Covid-19 surge and Washington may be able to reroute shipments to India, according to Joe Biden's spokesperson Jen Psaki.
The U.S. has also identified commercial suppliers of Remdesivir who can immediately provide the Covid-19 medicine to India, she said April 26 during her briefing.
"Department of Defense and USAID are pursuing options to provide oxygen generation systems (and) we may be in a position to reroute shipments meant for other countries with lower immediate needs, given the urgency of the conditions in India," she said.
