...Foreign Ministry spokesman Arindam Bagchi tweeted photos Tuesday of the first shipment of medical aid India received from Britain. It included 100 ventilators and 95 oxygen concentrators.

Other nations including the U.S., Germany, Israel and Pakistan have also promised medical aid. The countries have said they will supply oxygen, diagnostic tests, treatments, ventilators and protective gear to help India’s crisis, which World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus called “beyond heartbreaking.”...

...France is sending breathing machines, ICU gear and eight oxygen generators in a shipment expected to be sent later this week. Each generator can equip a hospital of 250 beds for several years, French President Emmanuel Macron’s office said.

France will also send breathing machines, pumps and containers of liquid medical oxygen aimed at helping up to 10,000 patients per day, according to the French Foreign Ministry.

The White House was moving to share raw materials for the AstraZeneca vaccine by diverting some U.S. orders to the Serum Institute of India... the administration was working on other requests for personal protective equipment, tests and oxygen supplies...

mild cases may not build many antibodies
old people may not build many antibodies
genetic glitches in people may lead to less antibodies being produced

I’ve been poked many times with vaccines for travel. A universal given is, sore, maybe warm arm, headache, malaise, loss of appetitite, and sleepiness for a day or two.

India is in ‘spring’ right now - very hot (over 90), very humid, day after day, so more people inside in A/C; and humidity IIRC is condusive to viral spread. Over prior two months, several massive demonstrations by farmers coming in from the countryside.

Irrelevant. Anyone who thinks it is safer to get the virus than it is to get the vaccine is delusional.

It was my understanding India was also liberally applying HCQ and other therapeutics?

That would be like saying that, if they handed out the I-word in Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio, the United States was liberally applying therapeutics.

That's misinfo spouted by FR's branch of the Pfizer marketing department. Look it up in relation to Uttar Pradesh, the nature of their work force, and how they are doing relative to other states.

The states in India using HCQ and IVM are suffering a tenth of the death toll of Maharashtra and Delhi where Remdesivir was used in many hospitals instead (WHO/Western recommendations in general).

This.

Look at India and tell me that these are “cures”.

Why don't you provide details on I-word treatment in India. You're saying "look". Show us specifics. You use it in your arguments regularly. Pfizer marketing should have the resources to pull this information together.

Things like number of people treated, breakdown by state, dose, duration of treatment. Anything?

Most new cases are caused by a double and triple variant.

I'd like to see the studies on that. Can you point me the way?
