Covid-19: Here’s how you can order food on WhatsApp

With many patients self-isolating in the comfort and safety of their homes, many patients are finding it difficult in getting healthy meals. In a bid to help Covid-19 patients in India, popular celebrity chef Saransh Goila has partnered with social media giant Facebook to help them in finding meals in their locality. 

Covid-19 patients can use WhatsApp and Facebook platforms to find meals amid the second wave of Covid-19, in their nearby localities. Goila has also inked a partnership with a startup, Fastor, to launch covidmealsforindia.com, which delivers food to needy Covid-19 patients. 

The platforms are already a major hit, with over 2 lakh users reportedly visiting it to book their healthy meals. But now, covidmealsforindia.com has started helping Covid-19 patients find meals over WhatsApp.
