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 was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your
    site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

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

    Having read this I thought it was really informative.
    I appreciate you taking the time and effort to put this informative article
    together. I once again find myself spending way too much
    time both reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still
    worthwhile!

    I have been browsing online greater than three hours today, but
    I by no means discovered any interesting article like
    yours. It's lovely value enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did, the internet might be a lot more
    helpful than ever before.

    An interesting discussion is worth comment. There's no
    doubt that that you should publish more on this issue,
    it may not be a taboo matter but typically people do not discuss these topics.
    To the next! Many thanks!!
