As India battles an intensifying second wave of COVID-19 infections, Apple CEO Tim Cook has said that his company would donate to the support and relief efforts going on the ground to fight against the pandemic.
"Amid a devastating rise of COVID cases in India, our thoughts are with the medical workers, our Apple family and everyone there who is fighting through this awful stage of the pandemic. Apple will be donating to support and relief efforts on the ground," Cook tweeted on Tuesday.
