    So guys wife has recovered from Covid and is now slowly gaining her strength back, thanks for all the good wishes.

     

    I also wanted to speak about how well BBMP was integrated and involved, the day she tested positive, I got at-least 5 calls to check on here. It was from BBMP central number, they asked me if I would want to go private or through government. If I opt for government, the entire treatment is free, if private then I need to pay for everything, and they will be available to help in case of Emergency. Then i got a call from  local ward, and then from panchayat. In the evening i got a call from two doctors to check on her and if I had any queries. This was next day followed by another doctor call and there on Automated calls everyday at 10 am with certain questions i had to answer. Based on my answers they decided if further action was needed or to continue in Home isolation.

     

    One day I missed the call, and I got call from local panchayat and also a Doctor to check if everything is OK. Local panchayat female even requested me to ask wife to take a selfie and send to her to make sure she is fine. After 11 days got a call from a doctor if everything was fine and they can mark her recovered. I am pleasantly surprised how well this was done, and how they kept sending me SMS with emergency numbers and what not. Yes the hospitals were overwhelmed and lack of resources were there, but things seems to be improving now.

     

    Where in we never let go of criticizing things not working, I am making this post to just also make people aware that things are happening at ground level, and I really appreciate the Karnataka Government for the same.

     

    Compared to other big cities, things are handled really well here.
    Heard same from my friend as well, whose entire family got infected. BBMP are doing such a great job. Its a pity they dont get credit, slightest mistake and they get slandered in media. 

     

    Even Vaccinations for all age groups are available without much  issues.
    In last 10 days, a lot of my relatives and friends have got vaccinated who are in 18-44 age group.
    45 + people can walkin and get a vaccine so easily without much hassle.

    Please also share how you make the ice cream

     

    I use Amul whipping cream.
    Whip the whipping cream with Condensed milk. Once you get the perfect whipped cream texture, add your choice of flavor. 

    Its very simple actually. You just need to get the quantities right.

    Pretty much the team ill also go with. 
    No ranji games for Bhuvi, he again got injured in IPL once already. That might be the reason. 

     

    If pitch is fast bowling friendly and has no assintance to spinners, ill play Washinton Sundar or Shardul for Ashwin.
    Sundar is very handy as a batsman.

    Natrajan missing out due to injury? 

     

    Don't see him in standby players too. 

     

    Natarajan was only there because fast bowlers were injured. Now that everyone's back, he's been left out.. 

     

    Hardik also dropped. This should be the parameter. He's allrounder, if he cant bowl, he shouldn't play.

    This s  awful. The level of corruption that is everywhere. All these guys involved should be booked for murder and not corruption. 
    Kudos to him for exposing this even when his party is in power. 
    Suddenly 1500 beds were available in the evening after they discovered all the fake bed bookings.

    Guys both covaxin and covishield are available at various locations in Pune. People who took the jabs are saying it's well managed. Which one should I go for? leaning towards Covaxin.

     

    Even i wanted Covaxin. 
    But i ended up taking Covishield, because only that was available. 

    My advice would be, take whatever is available t the earliest.

    The Indian Premier League has been rocked by another COVID-19 scare, with Kolkata Knight Riders players and staff isolating after multiple players fell ill.

    Sources confirmed to The Age and the Herald that several personnel within the KKR camp - which features Australian superstar Pat Cummins - are unwell, and that their match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, scheduled for Monday night AEST, is in doubt.

    Lucky man. I've been checking since a day and cant see any centers for 18+ people in Bangalore. Which pincode you used?

     

    Don't use pincode. 

    Select State - Karnataka 

    District - BBMP

    Go through the list. I randomly checked last night and this was only hospital giving the vaccines. 

     

    Keep checking regularly. After May 5th more centers and stock will come up.
