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".

    Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using?

    I'm going to start my own blog soon but I'm having a tough
    time deciding 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 unique.
    P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

    Hello! Quick question that's completely off topic. Do you know how
    to make your site mobile friendly? My web site looks weird when viewing from my
    iphone 4. I'm trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this issue.

    If you have any suggestions, please share. With thanks!

    The next time I read a blog, Hopefully it doesn't fail me as much as this particular one.
    I mean, Yes, it was my choice to read, however I truly
    believed you would have something interesting to talk about.
    All I hear is a bunch of moaning about something you can fix
    if you were not too busy searching for attention.

    Hello! 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 site goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you're interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent blog by the way!
