With the advent of Summer, we expect this trend to continue. Even though digital healthcare businesses are delivering medical services to people houses across India, there is still a demand for medical emergency treatment that is available and accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We are glad to connect consumers with such service providers, especially during unanticipated times of COVID.”
