I had seen the other travel posts before my last post but missed this one. Good post. By summer travel might be a bit easier, even judging by some of the out of date links I found from last summer. So we'll see.Quote:

But if it is no longer the case 'no one is safe until everyone is safe' -how can you know if trip abroad is safe? The risk factor may determine our behavour over the next 1-5 years.Quote:

Elvis appears to have left the building, but the data for 2020 are now in and they show that there was no increase at all in suicides (in fact, a small decrease compared to previous years). There was an increase in drug overdose deaths, but this was only a small fraction of Covid deaths.Quote:

Three articles from the press in India which expain how the country has gone from being in a situation where-
"...on January 29th, during his speech at the Davos forum, PM Modi said that the country had won the war on COVID-19, something he repeated in Parliament a week later, and India won acclaim from around the world. At the time, India was seeing about 11,000 new cases a day nationwide and 1.5 lakh active cases. Today that number has grown to 3 lakh new cases and 24 lakh active cases on an upward trend."

(A lakh is 100,000)
"There are three key factors behind what went wrong: government response, public behaviour and variants"
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-04-...fold/100089732
Modi, out of touch, but not out of office-
"Despite the situation, Mr Modi urged states to avoid lockdowns if possible.
In the current situation, we have to save the country from another lockdown, he said on Tuesday. I urge states only to use lockdowns as the last resort. "

A friend in India is in despair at the behaviour of the Govt, if not surprised. It is time for India to ban all international travel, and for the UK at least, to ban all travel between the UK and India. Will people ever learn what makes it so easy for the virus to spread? The complacency in India has been sickening -literally.
Mayor De Blasio: "NYC will be fully opened on July 1st".
Governor Cuomo: "Unzips pants, takes out dick, "All of NYS will be fully opened on May 19th".
Thank you for clarifying the situation in city and state...Quote:
