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".

    It's very trouble-free to find out any matter on web as
    compared to books, as I found this article at this
    web site.

    Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the
    net the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get irked
    while people think about worries that they just don't know
    about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the
    whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal.

    Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

    I'm amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that's both equally educative and engaging,
    and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.

    The issue is something which too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
    I'm very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this.
