The number of corona patients in the country has been increasing rapidly over the last few days. As the second wave of the coronavirus intensifies, India yet again reported the highest single-day spike of COVID-19 cases with over 3,46,786 fresh infections and 2,624 deaths on Saturday. The alarming spread of COVID-19 has led to shortage of oxygen cylinders in the hospitals, Remdesivir medicine, and beds in hospital. Many people are in need of medical supplies in case of an emergency.
As the country is going through the pandemic, many have actually got help from social media like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Amid huge demand for medical supplies, Twitter has created a Advance Search Feature for users who can search for latest information and useful materials. Which will help users to access the latest information and useful materials.

As this people’s movement unfolds, we wanted to remind you of some of the features that could help you find what you’re looking for faster #Covid19IndiaHelp"
