More than 1,000 oxygen concentrators are being shipped to India to help with the pandemic crisis there, thanks to the efforts of the Council of Indian Organizations of Greater Philadelphia.
The lifesaving devices are among many supplies that people of Indian heritage and others in the Delaware Valley have provided to India in recent weeks.
Paresh Birla, of Lower Makefield, is council president and, as such, is directing the work to help people in his native land where variants of the coronavirus have emerged in the past two months, causing scores of infections and fatalities. Medical supplies, particularly oxygen cannisters, have become scarce as the nation of 1.3 billion people grapples with the ongoing pandemic.

A group of Indian American physicians are sending thousands of oxygen concentrators to India to help curb the surge of the recent wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The recently-created Federation of Indian Physicians Association said May 7 that 5,000 oxygen concentrators have already been purchased and will be sent.
Of these, 450 units have already reached Ahmedabad, 325 are on their way to Delhi and 300 others to Mumbai, a news release said.
âThese units are to be received by local Indian partners, hospitals, makeshift isolation centers, newly created mobile hospitals and charities so that local partners in the remote parts of India can use these units to provide oxygen to COVID patients as needed,â said Dr. Raj Bhayani, FIPA president.
