Karan Deep Singh: 印度官方报告的COVID-19死亡人数远远低于实际数字。政府在疫情早期低估了疫情的严重性，导致疫苗供应不足，医疗资源匮乏，许多人在疫情期间死于无法获得及时治疗。此外，印度中央政府与各邦政府之间的协调不力也阻碍了疫情防控工作。政府的疫苗接种策略也存在问题，最初将疫苗用于外交目的，导致国内疫苗供应短缺。即使在国际社会提供援助后，由于人口众多，援助仍然杯水车薪。 Carlos Martinez: 7月11日，古巴爆发了大规模抗议活动，抗议者要求自由和体制变革。古巴政府对和平抗议者使用暴力镇压，甚至强迫未成年人参与镇压。被捕的抗议者遭受酷刑和虐待，他们的家人也无法与他们取得联系。古巴流亡者呼吁美国政府采取行动，包括解除网络封锁、制裁古巴政权和进行人道主义干预。古巴人民的日常生活面临诸多困难，例如食物短缺、医疗资源匮乏等。古巴政府控制互联网，可以随时切断网络连接，阻碍信息传播。古巴的COVID-19疫情严重，医疗资源匮乏，疫苗接种工作进展缓慢。古巴人民要求的是自由，而不是救济。
