Current Situation Of Covid-19 In India

Cant beleive this is the 'pandemic contribution' thread from IL to the online world..
What a waste of potential.

 

Are you referring to #494 ? Duck Dynasty can indeed spur people to wonder if they should be in 100% agreement with anything. It was a reality TV show set in Louisiana where the whole family with LONG BEARDED men who don't agree much.

Been here during "Bigg Boss" TV reality show threads ? When a whole bunch of people are stuck inside some boundary, TV cameras pointing at them and broadcasting the goings on, and curating the presentations for comment by the viewers, long threads on social media will ensue. That is in the nature of the social media's response to reality TV. It happens in all countries, in all social media platforms. Contents galore.

 

I know you mean good but I am referring to others too..yeah this is why internet is full of 'showing the ground reality' because its that easy!.
Just typity type type it off from your costco recliner! the onus is on the people in India to see these and act upon them.

Some nice videos from medics or videos on how one should take care when you test positive or how to have some hope and get out of it or some helpline numbers etc or charity links would help but NO; from page 1 the OP is fixated on Modi and some are fixated on the OP.

How many profiles ago was that Hopi. Your replies, people either love em or hate them...

and @nemesis .. I cant beleive you have been engaging in this thread trying to explain!.. I must borrow a scoop of hope from you.

 

Wuhan virus, UK variant, Brazil variant, India variant, etc... all have planted the subliminal notion that viruses travel from that NAMED ORIGIN location, go elsewhere and infect people, even after the pandemic is recognized and ongoing. Each time the virus replicates in a cell, it has a chance of mutating—and sometimes those mutations become fixed features in the viral population.

A human with the original virus (whether he got it from a laboratory or through zoonotic transfer from an animal) infection, can go on to produce variations within his body, so long as the person is alive, and his cells are supplying the virus the necessary nutrients, and the bio-engineering process to multiply. The same person can produce a Tom-variant, Dick-variant and Harry-variant. The virus don't need to travel far. Naming viruses after Countries is a bad bad idea.

One media outlet in India that is often cited as informative and balanced, mentions in their report that the India-variant (B.1.617) went from India to 40 other countries: at 8'30". This is so idiotic. As well as dangerous to plant in the minds of populations, because it goes on to increase xenophobia in the world.

Every country in the world (whether or not Indian hosts of the virus, or or infected-fomites travel there) with infected people, and sufficient genetic sequencing capability, will go on to discover variants, including the B.1.617, as the virus mutiplies, and mutates within the hosts of that country. That is the way of evolution.

But these three versions of the virus are just a few among thousands of SARS-CoV-2 variants that have sprung up since the pandemic began. “We are creating variants like gangbusters right now because we have so many humans infected with SARS CoV-2,” says Siobain Duffy, a vial evolutionary biologist at Rutgers School of Environmental and Biological Sciences.

And how the viruses work and replicate. ​

 

When we don't like the reflection, we need to do changes to the object that's being reflected. Removing the mirror can help in stopping the ugly reflection but doesn't fix the root cause.

I can't understand anyone affected by this not feeling indignation.

 

Acknowledging the terrible situation, sympathy, empathy etc when watching from a higher position is better than asking the less fortunate to feel positive, look for positivity amidst tragedy. That is cruel and mocking.

 

How do you know the reflection will be what we want the next time?.. this is a never ending persuit...it is ,was and will be horrible and it will never speak for the people. How about people speak for people rather than chasing a perfect govt?

 

I replied n did a "unfollow thread". Saw the thread popping again in latest replies. No time to read what's happening here ..Can't believe it has reached 500+ replies.. Oops my reply just contributed to it's growth
