As per media reports, three former beauty queens as Miss
World 2017 Manushi Chhillar from India, Miss World 2016 Stephanie Del Valle
from Puerto Rico and Miss World 2018 Vanessa Ponce from Mexico have united
hands to raise awareness on coronavirus and discuss how to battle the stigma of
infection that is on the rise.
"At a time like this, whatever each one of us can do to
raise as much awareness about COVID-19 in our respective countries and
communities will be key to stop the virus in its tracks. I wanted to tell
people that we are in this together and what is happening in India is also
happening in the rest of the world," Manushi explained.
The platform will have the three former Miss Worlds, who are
also vocal about social issues and work in the fields of education, menstrual
hygiene, discrimination and racism, speak about the need for the world to unite
to fight the pandemic.
"The pain we are witnessing with the loss of lives, the
struggles, the hardships of Indians are similar to what is happening in every
country of the world and the Miss Worlds from Mexico and Puerto Rico will speak
the same. We are one world and we can fight and heal collectively. That's the
intent of this exercise," she further added.
