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".

    Wonderful site you have here but I was wondering if you knew of any community forums
    that cover the same topics talked about in this article?
    I'd really love to be a part of online community where I can get
    feedback from other experienced people that share the same interest.
    If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
    Thanks a lot!

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

    Остекление дома очень важно по трём причинам. Звукоизоляция, эстетика и теплоизоляция, вот причины для модернизации вашего окна и застекленных дверей.

    Hello would you mind letting me know which web host you're utilizing?
    I've loaded your blog in 3 different internet browsers and
    I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you suggest a good internet hosting
    provider at a honest price? Kudos, I appreciate
    it!

    Hi there, I do think your site could possibly be having internet
    browser compatibility problems. When I look at
    your blog in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in IE, it's got some overlapping issues.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Aside
    from that, wonderful blog!
