| This is perhaps the most obvious and immediate effect quarantine life has had on the mental healthcare support system — the congruence of fears between a client and their counsellor. Everyone's routine has been thrown out of whack, making them lose the semblance of control over their lives. | | | A group of migrant labourers stuck in an underconstruction building in Delhi, with dwindling supplies, little money and creeping panic, represents a microcosm of the crisis of deprivation playing out across India. They are stranded in the city where they work, like million others across the country, with no work or wages for weeks now. | | | Ramesh Sobti tried to ensure IndusInd Bank had a wider retail depositor base before he retired. But the current stress will test the bank as well as his successor Sumant Kathpalia. | | | Railways' parcel train service, abandoned decades ago, is now helping companies move essentials. | | | The hotspots have been put under containment. Tracing of contacts of all cases has been done and all high-risk contacts have been tested. Mobile vans have been used so far for sample collection to restrict movement of suspected cases, says Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh. | | | As Covid-19 sweeps across the world, extracting a heavy toll, restaurants in India too are in a similar apocalyptic crisis. The National Restaurant Association of India has sounded the alarm bells, apprehending huge revenue losses for a sector pegged at Rs 4.5 lakh crore in annual revenues, and big job losses among the 7.3 million people working in food services in the country. | | | One challenge epidemiologists are facing now in India is the lack of data to track Covid's trajectory. | | | India's manufacturing industry does rely heavily on imported components, including semiconductors, smartphone screens, LED screens, sensors and so on. | | | Healthcare workers are handling increased infection risk, paucity of protective gear, and even assault. | | | As India stares at an extended lockdown, it has the opportunity to learn from the mistakes of the first phase. | | | Covid-19 has offered CMs a chance to rise to the occasion under national glare. Many are stepping up. | | | The highlight is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, which is currently the fastest Android chipset. | | | Amid the mounting number of coronavirus infection cases, the number of recovered cases remains a small ray of hope. But several people who have survived Covid-19 have asserted that their battle against social stigma stretched far longer than their medical battle. They said even their family members were ostracised and that could certainly take a toll on anyone's mind. | | | Warzone is how a battle royale game should be. | | |
