The crisis is not yet over

-
The COVID-19 epidemic in the country is not over. The negligence of physical distancing in public places is a matter of concern. The number of people infected with this virus in India exceeding over two hundred twenty-five thousand. India currently holds 7th position in terms of infected people in the world, with these trends India may leave behind Italy, the United Kingdom and Spain.                                  Perhaps in terms of per million casualties, India is a good example

The rate of infection is increasing, it is clear that the epidemic that has arisen from this dangerous virus is penetrated in the communities, and we are not in a position to get rid of it soon. Despite this, it is a matter of relief for the people that more than one hundred thousand people in India have been cured, after defeating this disease and the rate of recovery from this infection has also reached close to 50 per cent. At the same time countries with strong public health infrastructure, the patient's recovery rate is over 95 per cent, Ireland is a shining example of this.  Perhaps in terms of per million casualties, India is a good example, it is reassuring that the death toll in India is far less than other countries. 

The Public Health experts are saying that the peak of COVID-19 infection in India is yet to come, therefore India need to undertake the following measures:
  1. Without further loss of time, India may take all possible steps to build the required Public Health infrastructure.
  2. Two meeters physical distance is important between individuals, necessary, regular hand washing and sneezing etiquettes are key for prevention. 
  3. The country needs to have a Public Health strategy- incorporating all sectors like Schools, Colleges, Businesses, Transport, Guidelines for the Elderly Population, SOP for people returning to work.
  4. This is a public health emergency not a law and order problem so at national, state, district, city, block, town and village level Public Health Experts Committees need to be established and these committees need to recommend policies and strategies to the administration and civil administration must have people-friendly approach in the implementation of Public Health policies and recommendations.  
  5. Many best practices are available within India and around the world so public health experts regularly need to have meaningful learning exchanges. 
  6. Test, Trace and Treat are helpful and its success would depend on all elements are aligned and implemented fully.  
It is proving helpful in the countries where lifting of lockdown is progressing in a phased manner with planning and strict implementation of two meters physical distancing and use of masks policy. 

Since the crisis is not yet averted or even in control, everyone must follow physical distance and conduct life with caution. This crisis also presents an opportunity that the state governments should improve their health facilities and services.

Telephone Consumers in Ireland are Vulnerable for Cramming (Unauthorized, Misleading, or Deceptive Charges Placed on Your Telephone Bill)

-

The consumer gets crammed when a dishonest company puts charges on their phone bill (landline or mobile phone) for services that were not wanted or authorized by the customer.   Cramming has been around for more than a decade—ever since phone companies were allowed to make extra money by billing for other companies. Until recently, the phenomenon had been mostly limited. These days this scam is a growing problem for phone customers in Ireland.  More alarmingly, a study in the United States of America found that only 1 in 20 cramming victims realize they’ve scammed. That’s because the crammers are clever. They know how to make their illegal fees easy to miss by consumers. They keep the amounts small and list them on the bill as something innocuous, such as monthly charge or service fee. People don’t see it, and if they do see it, they don’t pay attention. It is estimated that in Ireland it is amounting millions of Euro every Month. Recently I have found in my m...

Indian and Chinese Conflicts Leading Towards War

The Chinese have continuously deceived India in the name of peace and trade. In times of crisis, the Chinese government and its military have succeeded in instilling a false sense of trust in the Indian government and its agencies because of Indian desire to settle the matters peacefully. Whenever the Chinese government engaged in any negotiations with India, they were also scheming to seize Indian territories and, it has not only proven with India but also in case of Tibet and all other neighbouring countries of China. We can see in past and present all Chinese actions in a way a conspiracy towards India.  Whenever the Chinese government engaged in any negotiations with India, they were also scheming to seize Indian territories Sadly, Tibetans believed in India as they have chosen India for their guidance and protection of their cultural and territorial integrity, perhaps, India successfully protected their cultural and traditional values but have failed to free them from the clut...
