BBC from Northern Ireland BBC from Northern Ireland BBC

A Russian super airplane bringing medical drugs and devices to India hit by the third Corona wave. The BBC reports from Northern Ireland:  

More aid is coming from Germany and other Western countries. The daily infections rate mounted to about 400.000. Oxygen for treatment and human resources are lacking. One of the hotspots is the state of Maharashtra with the megacity of Mumbai (Bombay) in the West. How is the famous charity ADAPT (formerly Spastic Society of India) providing physical and psychological treatment for handicapped children (mostly from its shanty-town Dharavi)? I am in contact with its staff:

"Hope you and the other people of ADAPT are safe. Please let me know how you are protecting the handicapped children in Dharavi. How is vaccination going on in Mumbai?

Best wishes from Ekkehard"

Answer from Varsha, deputy of Dr Mithu Alur, the charity's founder, on 07/05/2021: 

Hi. We are all safe, thank you. Dr. Alur had started tele therapy and online teaching immediately so we are in touch with the children and young adults. Some have returned to their villages of course.... They've started vaccinating you above 18 now... Most of us have taken the first dose of the vaccine. Waiting for enough vaccines to be available for the second shot. Hope you and Helen are well... And have taken both the shots. Regards".

    I have been surfing on-line greater than three hours today,
    yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours.

    It is lovely worth enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made good content material as you did,
    the web might be a lot more helpful than ever before.

    Greetings from Colorado! I'm bored to death at work so I decided to browse your site on my iphone during lunch break.
    I enjoy the knowledge you provide here and can't wait to take a look when I get home.
    I'm shocked at how fast your blog loaded on my cell
    phone .. I'm not even using WIFI, just 3G ..
    Anyhow, superb blog!

    Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you're using?
    I'm going to start my own blog in the near future but I'm having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    Good day! I know this is kinda off topic however , I'd figured I'd ask.
    Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?

    My website discusses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.

    If you are interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail.

    I look forward to hearing from you! Superb blog by the way!
