  2. Once my uncle said to me – there is no medicine to cure ‘fear, so goes true for corona virus.
    Only way to handle is becoming immune to this virus, so goes true for fear.

  3. I second that. Around 9 years ago, I went to a doctor for my kids’ vaccination and asked him, how a poor man will afford this, and the doctor said, they are gifted with strong immune system which doesn’t require all these vaccinations. I truly believe that strong immunity system will fight any virus.

  4. Interesting. Thank you for sharing Dr Aniruddha Malpani Sir
    However the best inference that can be made from this article is that the “LOCKDOWN” was ill-timed rather than “INEFFECTIVE”.
    Stefan Homburg is professor of Public Finance and Not Public Health.
    What Nations lacked so dearly in this Pandemic is decent well intentioned knowledgeable Public Health Officials of yesteryears before Medicine and Hospitals were taken over by VCs.
    There are many articles that have a contrarion view. ?
    It’s best for India and Indians to think Globally but act locally.

  5. Frankly speakjng, I still believe that we did great by having a lockdown till the 3rd of May..however whatever is happening after 3rd May can be surely be called madness..
    Especially the wine shops.. which would not have attracted big crowds if the Government had allowed them to operate during the lockdowns with discipline.. it’s like creating an artificial scarcity and then opening the flood gates..
    Further the migrant problem was better to be addressed at the start of the lockdown and I have no dual mind on that.. it would have saved the hassles …

  6. Surely but there is a lot behind the scene to ponder upon barring noise of news channels.
    Offcourse centre missed putting wine shops in exception when they stated standalone shops can be open.
    And states complied to it allowing standalone shops but yes among them wine saw more crowd maybe as Late Rishi Kapoor hinted in March that alcohol be provided in rationed way may be home delivery so there is no scarcity.
    Many of us not alcoholics but yes those who are for them it could be medical issue in total absence of it.
    Now comes the revenue part but then all other relaxations in lockdown 3 are mend to recover economy which in every passing second & minute maybe losing crores nationally but then that’s with most countries which have to take such decision , however Lockdowns are not implemented the same way every where in UK for example it’s voluntary where people are not forced but allowed on thier self discipline to maintain social distancing , in other countries it’s partial , in poorer nation’s lockdown is total anarchy where people being shot down under lockdown.
    Here in India call it akaashvaani lockdown which came with just 4 hours notification resulted in human misery for 30-40 crores migrant labours.
    Jai Bhavani!
