When United States Vice President Kamala Harris spoke about COVID-19 vaccine equity in the south court auditorium at the White House complex on Monday, November 22, 2021, it was a sight for sore eyes for America's desis.
Sharing a podium with Kamala was US Surgeon General Dr Vivek H Murthy.

A woman of Indian (and Caribbean) origin a heartbeat away from the American presidency? And a desi doctor as surgeon general, the United States's primary spokesperson on health.
