Three autistic students from Chennai have created India's first COVID-19 data website for the visually impaired. According to NDTV, the trio has created a gateway that gathers content from various sites and converts it into a simple HTML format that screen readers can understand. C. Govindakrishnan, the site's founder, believes it has given them "a lot of momentum and edified our confidence to a different level."
