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".

    Rok 2000. Data symboliczna, przełom tysiącleci, czas oczekiwania na technologiczne cuda i jednocześnie obaw związanych z
    "pluskwą milenijną".

    Right here is the right site for anyone who hopes to find
    out about this topic. You understand a whole lot
    its almost tough to argue with you (not that I really would want to…HaHa).
    You definitely put a brand new spin on a subject that has
    been discussed for many years. Great stuff, just excellent!

    In this question, we're exploring the potential impact of the Russian airplane's delivery on international collaboration in response to the pandemic, a thought-provoking and relevant topic for this forum.


    Hope you don’t mind a quick tip about learning resources

    Just while searching for educational platforms I stumbled upon a site https://tools.veryuseful.website/

    They’ve collected:
    - online libraries (like "Українська Література"),
    - free courses via Prometheus,
    - Duolingo for learning Ukrainian,
    - information about schools and universities.

    Useful for both students and adults.

    Also found an awesome Ukrainian learning platform — maybe worth checking!

    Any other cool learning sites to recommend?

    Hope you don’t mind a small digression — it’s about shopping wisely

    Just a few days ago I came across a site called resource for wise buyers.

    They share great tips like:
    - how to read product ingredients,
    - checking expiration dates properly,
    - not overpaying just for brand names.

    Really useful if you shop carefully.

    Do you check ingredients when shopping too?

    Could the strategic cooperation between Russia and India in supplying essential medical resources during this crisis pave the way for a new era of economic and political partnership, potentially reshaping the global response to future pandemics?


    Maybe off the main topic, but could be worth a read

    Just while scrolling I ran into a site called news.veryuseful.website.

    It’s packed with record-breaking facts from athletics to swimming.

    Usain Bolt’s 9.58 seconds?
    Phelps’ 28 Olympic medals?
    Bubka’s 35 world records?
    It’s all there.


    Have you seen this kind of collection before?

    Quick share — this site is a gem

    Just during my hunt for kitchen inspiration I discovered a site https://kitchen-tips.chtonamstoit.site/.

    It’s full of super clear advice on storage and cleaning.

    Some sections I liked most:
    - A checklist for tidy storage

    Also here’s this kitchen hacks hub — definitely worth exploring!

    Anyone else a fan of kitchen organization?
