It went out to her hundred million followers, raising awareness about the supposedly undemocratic ways of the elected government of India.

That week, India had donated 100,000 free doses of vaccine to Barbados, enough to cover more than a third of that country’s population.Since early January, India has exported doses of vaccine to over 70 countries around the world.
