100 Crore Vaccines.

100 Crore Vaccines / 1 Billion Vaccines   100 करोड़ जीत के टीके
Congratulations India.   Corona will loose, Country will win.   कोरोना हारेगा, देश जीतेगा
VT-SLC B737-9GJER SpiceJet 2021
VT-SLH B737-8AS SpiceJet 2021
VT-SLM B737-8EH SpiceJet 2021

Celebrating India passing the 100 Crore (=1 Billion) vaccine doses inoculated which occured on October 21, 2021. VT-SLC had titles in Hindi on the port side and in English on the starboard side, with the contrary for VT-SLM which was in basic white livery. Decals were short-lived on these two aircraft. The sticker shows Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, as well as a doctor and a patient being vaccinated. Slightly later VT-SLH received similar decals, this time with the more understandable "1 Billion" phrase (Hindi on the port side, English on starboard side).

Note the additional "75 years of independence" stickers.

In 2021 LATAM Cargo, in partnership with Always and the Brazilian Red Cross, transported almost 500,000 pads free of charge to 12 Brazilian states, in an action against Menstrual Poverty. This term is used to define the lack of access to basic hygiene items, which can lead to many girls not going to school, for example.

Later in the year, LATAM Chile & Peru unveiled identical titles, this time highlighting the free transportation of vaccines and medical staff accross the country. The LATAM Peru A320 carries an additional nose sticker reading "Pongo el hombro por el Perú" (I put my shoulder for Peru).

JA613J B767-346ER JAL  [+] 2020-23

Amabie (アマビエ) is a legendary Japanese mermaid or merman with three legs. When it reportedly appeared in 1846 its prophecy was "Good harvest will continue for six years from the current year; if disease spreads, draw a picture of me and show the picture of me to those who fall ill and they will be cured." During the COVID-19 epidemic, amabie became a popular topic on Twitter in Japan. A logo featuring an Amabie was added to the underside of this 767 in September 2020 and by early October large titles promoting the JAL campaign aiming at reassuring its customers were added. Note the Amabie decal under the fuselage is also present on J-Air E170 JA211J.
