Not enough data
Mini Thomas primarily covers local news related to health, specifically with a focus on Covid-19 and healthcare in India, Karnataka, and Bengaluru. She frequently cites data and government announcements in her articles.
Given Mini's emphasis on local health issues such as Covid-19 updates and policies in Karnataka, she may be interested in receiving pitches from public health experts or officials involved in managing the pandemic at a regional level. Additionally, sources who can provide data-driven insights into the impact of Covid-19 on specific communities within Karnataka might also catch her attention.
Since Mini's coverage heavily relies on official announcements and statistical data, offering access to exclusive or early release of relevant data or insight into upcoming governmental decisions related to healthcare could enhance the chances of successful outreach efforts.
