2019-nCoV Coronovirus (COVID-19]

Cows are given a lot of importance in the native Indian medical systems. This maybe due to observations of the fact in older times that proximity to cows may have granted immunity to people from the more deadlier small pox ( due to contraction of the milder cow pox).

Consequently cows were given a lot of importance in those times when small pox was rampaging around the world.

Similarly cow urine and dung were said to have healing properties and were used as part of home remedies. But I doubt whether it is effective now. The general polluted condition of nature renders most natural remedies ineffective as well.


I had been reading of a book recently by the female enlightened sage Mata Amritanandamayi where she talks about the pollution in nature.

Mata Amritanandamayi for this reason has invigorated natural farming methods, organic farming and have created awareness movements of the harm created by plastic and other carcinogens.

 

Since the pandemic began there has been a growing list of people who have publicly denied the existence of the virus only later to have been stricken and hospitalized by the disease.

Russia Scrambles to Contain New Covid-19 Surge

MOSCOW — Russian officials scrambled on Saturday to slow the spread of a new wave of the coronavirus, ordering workers in Moscow to take next week off and pleading with the populace to make use of widely available vaccines.

The biggest spike appeared to be in Moscow, the Russian capital, which reported 6,701 new cases on Saturday — more than double the rise five days ago, and the highest single-day total since December. Mayor Sergey S. Sobyanin said the situation had “sharply worsened” in the past week, and that thousands of hospital beds were being repurposed to provide care for Covid-19 patients.
