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".

    Do you have a spam issue on this site; I also am a blogger, and I was wanting to know your situation;
    we have developed some nice methods and we are looking to exchange techniques with others, why not shoot
    me an email if interested.

    First of all I want to say great blog! I had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if you do not mind.
    I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind
    before writing. I've had a tough time clearing my mind in getting
    my ideas out there. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the
    first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted simply just trying
    to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips?
    Many thanks!

    An interesting discussion is definitely worth comment. There's no doubt
    that that you need to publish more about this
    issue, it may not be a taboo subject but usually people do not
    discuss these subjects. To the next! All the best!!

    believed this put up was good. I do not recognize who you might be however definitely you
    are going to a well-known blogger in the event you are not
    already. Cheers!
