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".

    Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found
    a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said
    "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell
    to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

    First off I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was interested to know how you center yourself and
    clear your thoughts before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my mind in getting
    my ideas out. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are
    usually lost simply just trying to figure out how
    to begin. Any recommendations or tips? Kudos!

    to write.

    I do accept as true with all the concepts you have introduced for your post.
    They are really convincing and will certainly work.
    Nonetheless, the posts are very quick for starters.
    May just you please extend them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post.

    Hi! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?
    My blog looks weird when viewing from my iphone. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that might
    be able to resolve this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share.
    Cheers!
