Indian hospitality giant OYO has stepped in to offer support in the fight against the outbreak of novel Coronaviurs (COVID-19).
In
the US, the company is offering free stay to doctors, nurses and other
medical first responders who are helping in the fight against
Coronavirus.
Lauding this move, Ivanka Trump, the advisor to her
father President Donald Trump, tweeted, "OYO Hotels are offering free
stays to our amazing medical professionals and first responders fighting
this virus on the frontlines. These kinds of impactful acts of
benevolence are what help keep this Nation and our world
#TogetherApart."
In India, the hospitality firm is in talks with the state governments as to how it can do its bit through its network of hotels.
"We
have made an earnest outreach to health departments of all state
governments to understand how we can leverage our network of hotels for
providing pay per use or self-quarantine facilities for travellers (as
advised by any state/central govt authority) at a reasonable and
affordable price," the company said in a statement.
OYO also said
that it is setting up a central helpline number to ensure that it is
taking requests from people as well as all state governments and
relevant authorities.
"Our outreach is also to the Ministry of
Health & Family Welfare as well as to WHO for discussion over
initiatives that OYO can quickly implement for the benefit of travellers
and those looking for self-quarantine/isolation facilities," the
statement said further.
