Keeping fingers crossed.
Performance of the Indian cricket team at Australia was a roller-coaster ride and it feels great that India has come out on top proving the experts totally wrong and how?
We are on a similar roller-coaster ride on Covid 19 in India. I was planning my bi-weekly visit to my older sister. Her care giver suggested that we wait for a while as there was a +ve case in their apartment block. Then my younger sister called me this morning. Her tone as she said 'how are you?' sounded worried. She continued and said that the couple residing one floor below were diagnosed Covid +ve.
She added that the couple had moved to her daughter's home, as soon as they felt feverish. It was a relief, but still worrying.
We need to be careful. Things are better, you do see more people wearing the mask and properly in public places! At the same time, there are exceptions. Especially at eating places! News about sports persons being +ve is just a mention. Imagine how it would have been in the beginning! I was under a kind of house arrest for three months as the ‘residents association’ wanted seniors to be kept at home.
We hope that our indigenous Vaccines will work as predicted. There are some worries, especially about Covaxin, some think it is too soon and have called it 'high-handed and reckless', while others call it a 'bold move'.
While we classify ourselves in different ways, just one person out of the billions can change our lives. We have no real control! Hope that only ‘common good’ guides those who matter.
The Covid 19 world graph continues to go up. It is seen growing at a higher rate since October '20.
INDIA it is still in the top three in the number of cases and total deaths,
but as a measure in per million, it has done better!
The situation seems to be getting better for India.
So keep your fingers crossed!

| So pray for Zero as early as possible. |
Let us also pray that all the normal activities especially the schools starts soon.
And that hospitals in both urban and rural areas go back to normal working and better!

So we are in totally uncharted territory as regards both the ailment and the cure so we are only left with hope that we all will be able to live through this pandemic. All the charts and graphs are no pointers if we are to understand that in China it is surging once again after nearly a year.
vaccine program moves at high speed to cover the
elders. Just got my first shot of Moderna vaccine. Second
scheduled for Feb 17. Supposed to get immunity for
about a year.
In dubai, many of them have been administered the vaccine and few have developed covid/symptoms of covid.
But do we have a choice? No.
Better to take something positively hoping that we will be protected, rather than thinking otherwise
