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".

When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with
the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
Cheers!

I've been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found
any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as
you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.

Hello this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or
if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have
no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with
experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

Hey! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering
if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for
my comment form? I'm using the same blog platform as yours and I'm having
problems finding one? Thanks a lot!
