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".

    An interesting discussion is definitely worth comment.
    There's no doubt that that you need to publish more on this
    subject, it might not be a taboo matter but generally people do not discuss these issues.
    To the next! Cheers!!

    I'm not sure exactly why but this site is loading incredibly slow for me.
    Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end?
    I'll check back later and see if the problem still exists.

    Undeniably believe that that you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be
    at the net the easiest factor to consider of.
    I say to you, I definitely get annoyed at the same time as folks
    consider worries that they just don't know
    about. You managed to hit the nail upon the highest as neatly as defined out the
    whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal.
    Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

    When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox
    and now each time a comment is added I get several
    e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me
    from that service? Thanks!
