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've been surfing on-line grdeater than 3 hours lately, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours.
    It's pretty value sufficient foor me. Personally, iif all website owners
    and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did,
    the internet will likely be much more useful than ever
    before.

    Hello fantastic website! Does running a blog like this require a large amount of work?

    I've virtually no understanding of computer programming however I was hoping
    to start my own blog soon. Anyways, should you have any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share.

    I know this is off subject but I simply needed to ask.
    Thanks!

    Does your website have a contact page? I'm having
    problems locating it but, I'd like to shoot you an e-mail.
    I've got some creative ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing.
    Either way, great site and I look forward to seeing it expand over time.
