Actor and philanthropist Sonu Sood said anyone who has lost a loved one due to covid-19 has not failed, it’s the system that has failed. The scarcity of oxygen or injection has created this failure. The actor feels responsible for this, for not being able to help everyone.
"Anyone who has lost a loved one due to scarcity of Oxygen or injection, will never be able to live in peace all their life. They will always live with a feeling that they failed to save their family. I want to tell them.. You didn't fail, We did," Sonu tweeted late on Tuesday night. The actor has expressed great regret for not being able to save them. The moment he tweeted this, netizens came rushing to reassure him that he has done everything he could have done. They also told him not to get discouraged and that he should continue doing this holy work of helping.
Since last year, Sonu has been working relentlessly to help people amid the Covid crisis. He and his team recently saved the lives of 22 patients at a Bengaluru hospital, and also arranged for a critically ill Covid patient to be airlifted from Jhansi to Hyderabad for necessary treatment.
