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".

    Heya! I understand this is kind of off-topic however I had to ask.
    Does running a well-established blog like yours take a
    massive amount work? I'm brand new to writing
    a blog however I do write in my diary every day. I'd like to start a blog
    so I can share my experience and thoughts online.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners.

    Thankyou!

    Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?

    I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. However just imagine
    if you added some great photos or videos to give
    your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with pics
    and clips, this blog could undeniably be one of the most beneficial in its niche.
    Very good blog!

    it a issue on my end? I'll check back later on and see if the problem still

    Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my
    blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
    I've been looking for a plug-in like this for
    quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
    Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading
    your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
