Very good … now who can source Pfizer(too expensive) or sinopharm(rice wine) for there covax program. India should only export vaccines as part of bi Latrell deals

^^^Wow... Was watching the dashboard .. and last time I noticed it needed about 1.5 Million doses.


Great!

We crossed a billion doses.

Well done Modi Sarkar.

Well done Modi Sarkar.

Cowin Dashboard is not showing it yet but it has been confirmed by official sources.
(Eg this link

Dashboard had crossed 100.03 crores when I had posted.

Any way 100 crores has been crossed.

A part of me is thinking in terms of attacking every one who flooded my what's app with negative messages during the second wave. For that being the fault of Modi.

If the second wave was Modi's fault. Then this is 100% his achievement.

Should I be generous in view of this accomplishment. Not rub their noses in dirt?

Ghebreyesus (Director-General of the World Health Organization)'s Tweet.

Had a call with @mansukhmandviya, India's Health Minister, to discuss #India's ongoing #COVID19 vaccination programme; the need for a global pandemic agreement; digital health; & traditional medicine. We welcome India's support to strengthen WHO, incl. via flexible, sustainable financing,"

Also:

The Minister and I also discussed #VaccinEquity issues: the resumption of SII/AstraZeneca vaccine supplies to #COVAX; the Covaxin Emergency Use Listing process; and technology and license sharing through C-TAP.

Well done

The answer to Sreenivasan Jain's question is Yes. Most countries have depended on 1 vaccine, at the most 2.
We are the only one producing 3 different vaccines, 2 of which have been developed in India.

Pratyush'ji, you are a BRF Oldie and isn't the above a newbie question?

I thought there will be lungi dance on the achievement followed by mandatory rubbing the noses of morons like Chetan Bhagat.

PM Mudi can be prime-ministerial and be a statesman. And hence can be generous. We are not statesman

China-linked disinformation campaign blames Covid on Maine lobsters

Zha Liyou, the Chinese consul general in Kolkata, India, tweeted an unfounded claim that Covid-19 could have been imported to China from the United States through a batch of Maine lobsters shipped to a seafood market in Wuhan in November 2019. It marks the latest in a series of theories that have been pushed by pro-China accounts since the start of the pandemic.

With some further digging, Schliebs uncovered a network of more than 550 Twitter accounts, which he shared with NBC News, spreading a nearly identical message, translated into multiple languages — including English, Spanish, French, Polish, Korean and even Latin — at similar times each day between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. China Standard Time.

When will the Chinese learn not to eat anything that can crawl, walk, or fly? No more bat soup infused with tiger benis for you!

I wanted to break this news here after a month. My startup is working on an affordable solution, where we can identify and isolate Covid-19 or any such disease in the workplace even before it becomes communicable. I hope to be ready with MVP by november end.

I filed an RTI with health ministry sometime ago, regarding Virus Incubation Cycle. They forwarded my request to CSIR. The reply was that basically zilch was done by our great government funded scientific organizations.

Another nugget; a birdie told me that Covid19 Vaxxing is not the end of story of pandemic.

Conclusion: We should be ready for many Covid and it's clones in future.

Meanwhile India is so generous .. teaching UK things like how to read digital vaccine certificates etc...

can we use this in elevators/trains?
Hope you are filing for patents

It relies upon wearable and is being designed to detect an infection in late incubation/early prodromal stage, where it is not being spread.

At present, by the time a person is identified with Covid19, he would have already passed it to 100s of people. Our system will stop it.

It can be used on trains, provided a wearable is issued with every ticket and collected at the destination for reuse.

Can't be used in elevators as it is not a contactless device.

The main purpose is to allow school, colleges, factories, delivery boys, banks to operate without any fear of passing of infectious diseases among the workforce. You won't need masks. Lockdown won't be required for next virus or a new strain, even if vaccine is yet to be discovered. Can provide a complete incubation cycle and spread pattern of an infection easily.

Regarding patents, there are some areas in physical device/calibration, we may file. But the actual magic happens in the algorithm which makes it possible.

I don't know what is possible to get things patented der. Will see as money starts flowing in.

Currently arranging funds, rushing to complete the development and in talks with a big school in a large school chain to implement it. Have understanding to implement for staff, and if satisfactory will be extended to all the students.

Meanwhile, In India of eligible adults
76% with at least one shot..
32% fully vaccinated.
Closed to home in the family - have gotten a booster (mRNA) (100% of all adults, who are eligible), 100% fully vaccinated 12 years and above, 100% above 3 years and up with at least one shot. (Among children, only one 3 year old grand-daughter had fever, none other had any other side effects. (All vaccines are mRNA type).

US is now allowing/recommending booster for all J&J (2 months after the first dose), and all mRNA( Pfizer and Moderna) (65+ and 6 months after the last shot). They are also allowing mix and match. After Nov 2, wide availability for all 5 years and above.

PLEASE GET Vaccinated as soon as you can.

This didn't age well

Over 7.7 million just today for a cumulative total of over 1021 million.

Suraj - Did you notice from MoHFW that 2nd dose given has exceeded 1st dose? This has been going on for some days now. Last update for Oct. 23rd morning showed 2.899 million 1st dose and 3.949 million 2nd dose.

Yes this has been the case all week . The momentum has swung towards full vaccination side now .

There are too many stupid people including Bloomberg who do not understand basic math and can’t figure that with a 12 week interval it is normal for first doses to much exceed second , compared to a country with primarily 21/28 day interval like US.

^^^What?!? I thought you and Andy Mukherjee were chaadi buddies?

Something is not right with Chinese vaccination numbers. Smells like Sialkot statistics or may be my assumptions are wrong.

Google shows 2.8bn only for China (mainland). I rarely see mainland mentioned in any of the Chinese numbers. Also if I assume there are 1 billion mainland Chinese including newborn and infants, did they all get 3 doses each? This lentil looks greyish black.

Assuming they all got 3 doses, why are they doing new lockdowns in many areas?

MoHFW that 2nd dose given has exceeded 1st dose? This has been going on for some days now. Last update for Oct. 23rd morning showed 2.899 million 1st dose and 3.949 million 2nd dose.

FWIW: These numbers are absolutely consistent with SUTRA's mathematical modeling. The second dose % will improve in next two months..(when we start 12-18 or younger people then first dose, as expected will again take a hike ..)

Good News: IIT Hyderabad will carry on the outstanding work of covid19india. A beta version of the website is at:

(Thanks to some members of Sutra team for making this happen)

All the best SinghS, I've not understood the full concept you are pursuing but perhaps you may not want to reveal all just yet. Same offer as above form me should you need it.

Cyrano wrote: All the best SinghS, I've not understood the full concept you are pursuing but perhaps you may not want to reveal all just yet. Same offer as above form me should you need it.

The concept is very simple: Infection happens in 3 stages - Incubation, Prodromal and Clinical disease.

1. A person comes in contact with an infective agent by air we breath, food, open wound or body fluids....if we eliminate these from the surroundings, infection won't spread.

2. Once a person has ingested infective agent, he enters "Incubation Stage". Infection doesn't spread in this stage. There are no symptoms.

3. Once there is enough viral load, the infection reaches "Prodromal Stage"...now the person has minimal symptoms but actively spreads the infection by body fluid discharge and exhaling air.

4. Finally Clinical disease stage is reached and he/she goes for test and disease is confirmed. But by that time damage is done and many more are already infected.

Our solution is to identify infection in Late Incubation/ Early Prodromal and immediately isolate the person. You won't have any infected air and body fluid, spread in the school/workplace; as the person is yet not spreading. It also provides a much earlier warning to the person isolated and seek early medical attention.

Actually the application is limitless!

How do we do that?....a very small code of software . Hope it makes sense.

Thank you, the concept is clear. Whats behind your " " is an interesting puzzle to mull over !

That would be great!

The business model is such that it will be self sustained, profitable venture from the customer no. 1 itself.

I am in talks with a couple of investors here in Chennai, sending presentation decks to a few VCs too. But currently my bandwidth is limited to go all out on this, juggling development and solving MCU supply issues and lead-time concerns.

Getting to talk to more investors, would be a great help. Thanks.

A human body generates disease symptoms in a continuous manner over time but modern medical science treats it as a digital signal. So we see a doctor, only when we reach a threshold. But have we become ill at this point, or the disease started much earlier?

If we use math we have the answer.

I would take your offer and love to talk with the investors.

If it is an investor deck , can you put it in a google drive and share.

You can give me your email too. I will introduce you to few folks in Bangalore.

If this works, you might have found a way to tap into a lot of other health issues. Not just covid. You are talking about analog signal vs digital discrete measurements we get once we see symptoms

Very innovative. Good luck to your team. I am really rooting for your team.

Of interest to BRF will be the role of Lt. Gen. Madhuri Kanitkar, in SUTRA. She's the senior most lady officer in the forces. A very charismatic and
intellectually brilliant person.
