Smaller hiccups happen in any large plan, but at least we are not begging foreign countries to give us vaccines like 100+ nations are doing today.

Most of what Indians need is being developed here itself thanks to massive preparation for a year.

1) India's critical medical infra improvement in the past 1 year under @narendramodi era.

For COVID19 treatment:

India had a total of 62,458 oxygen supported beds on April 21, 2020.
India had a total of 2,55,168 oxygen supported beds on April 9, 2021.

A 309% increase in 1 yr!
2) India had 27,360 ICU beds on Apr 21, 2020.
India had 75,867 ICU beds on Apr 9, 2021.
A 177% increase in 1 year.

India had 13,158 ventilators on Apr 21, 2020.
India had 23,618 ventilators on Jan 28, 2021.
A 80% increase in 1 year.

There are more, but for non COVID patients.
3) I know the above increases are still not enough, seeing of COVID 2nd wave deaths, but at least see how improvements. Note, just increasing the devices is not enough. We also need Doctors, Nurses and lab technicians ramped up at a much higher scale. That's the real challenge!

1) Most of us never observed our breathing techniques till we got to see how Corona Virus targets human breathing.

Oxygen, ICU, Ventilator, Remdesivir and everything else point to only 1 thing eventually.. the COVID patient is unable to breath properly as the lungs are affected.
2) What can you do to at least be in a better physical and mental position if the virus hits you in the future?

Develop better breathing techniques that make lungs stronger, and also make you more healthier mentally and physically. You might have a better chance to fight back.
3) One prominent Yogic breathing technique is #Pranayama. It is a collection of breathing routines from ancient India. Then there are very well constructed techniques like the Sudarshan Kriya of @ArtofLiving.

You learn to make your lungs more efficient to oxygenate the body well

1) For 13 months continuously, Maharashtra is in news as the worst performing state when it comes to Corona Virus control. Every single month!

Other states got spikes, panic, reliefs, plateaus etc., but if there is one state that was on the top of COVID cases list, it was MH.
2) Here is a recap:

In April Maharashtra became the first state in India to cross the 1000 COVID cases mark.
By May, MH topped 50,000 mark.
By June, MH overtook China, where the Wuhan origin virus originated.
By July, 3 lakh mark reached. Lockdown was mostly in effect still..
3) By August, politics was in full force, terming Maharashtra as the COVID capital of India.
By Sept, MH crossed the infamous 1 million mark. 25% of India's cases.
Even in October, MH was extending lockdown.
By November, cases were slowing, but still MH was India's chart buster.

His take home salary is ₹15.75 lakh after paying ₹5,25,000 in taxes to the goverment. On top, he pays indirect taxes like GST, cess..
2) Baljit is a farmer. Worked hard on his big 12.6 hectares farm. He earns ₹15.75 lakhs per year.

Pays ZERO direct income tax. Keeps 100% of his income to himself, while enjoying many benefits from the govt in the form of subsidy, MSP..

Of course pays GST & other indirect tax.
3) Tax Daata Basavaraj who pays most of the expenses of army, irrigation, road building, police, hospitals, schools etc. with his (& company's corporate tax), is viewed with disdain,while Anna daata Baljit who pays only a fraction of tax (GST..), is glorified when blocking roads!

1) PM @narendramodi would be remembered by the future generations as the head of a government which built the largest railway infrastructure in India, since the British left in 1947!
