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".

    With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement?
    My website has a lot of unique content I've either written myself or outsourced
    but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any techniques to help protect against content
    from being stolen? I'd certainly appreciate it.

    If I didn’t have a lot fun with this game, or if
    there were any other game on the market that was comparable, I wouldn’t be so sad to see it go.
    Not much else about it was revealed although. Threw the ball
    at them. Threw bricks at them. Players used a long stick or a ladder to retrieve the ball after which continue play.
    They used a stick. We’ll look at full-array backlighting, to begin with.
    Some keyboards enable for swapable keycaps, allowing you to customise the look of your keyboard.
    We now had a list of tasks, with individuals who
    have been responsible for getting them done. Baseball
    had a complete listing of alternate names in the beginning.
    Apps & Features, then find the game within the add/remove packages checklist.
    Even if your stream is running okay, multitasking turns into more difficult, and you may notice other background applications
    lag or hiccup, relying in your stream decision.

    Sweet blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
    Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed
    in Yahoo News? I've been trying for a while but I never seem
    to get there! Cheers
