  3. To all queries on Trials Vs Manufacturing: Typically, a trial & manufacturing for a new vaccine happens parallely. If trial succeeds, vaccine is allowed to sold. If they don't, it's a loss to the manufacturers. In all, vaccine development is a high risk, high reward mechanism.

  6. Every business, from a restaurant to an airline to a news studio should use this time to shape up safer working spaces for their employees/customers. Make protocols, train employees, demarcate rosters. Safe spaces will drive profitability. Make this down time, a design time.

    How plasma therapy works? As affected patients recover, their blood is used to extract plasma, the liquid form of blood, containing antibodies.This is transferred to a current patient. What's the danger? Big risk that other life threatening infections might also get transferred.

    Guess how much has ICMR paid for these kits till now? ZERO rupee! The kits were not upto the quality standards and ICMR has not made any payment. Same can be attested from the court judgement. So essentially, the GoI has not lost even a single rupee.

    There was a time when we struggled to provide cash during emergencies even in a single city. Thanks to Direct Benefit Transfer, enabled by the JAM trinity, we now have the capability to transfer cash to almost the entire country in no time.

    How growth of cases is reduced but total no. increases? R0 - Rate of Spread (Its a multiplier, basically) Ex: R0 = 2 Day 1: 10 Case Day 2: 10 * 2(R0) = 20 Cases Day 3: 20 * 2 = 40 Cases Imagine what happens after 50 days. Only way is to reduce R0 & that's what India is doing.

    When the lockdown started, the case doubling rate was 3 days. Today, it is around 13 days. Without lockdown, the no. of cases would have been higher by 44 times - hovering the total to 10 lakh+. There might have been few ups & downs but India has really pulled this one together!
