'Walk the Talk' health for all Initiative. Credit : WHO Herd immunity happens when a high percentage of the population is immune to a disease (through vaccination), making the spread of this disease from contact unlikely. Even individuals not vaccinated (such as enfants and the immuno-compromised) are offered some protection because the disease has little opportunity to spread within the community. As we know, vaccines prevent many dangerous and deadly diseases. In India, smallpox and polio have both been stamped out because of vaccination. However, there are certain groups of people who cannot get vaccinated and are vulnerable to disease: babies, pregnant women, and immuno-compromised people, such as those cancer patients who are receiving chemotherapy or organ transplants.

These global cities are important economic centres that bring together a large part of global economic activities and their key components. The current Covid-19 pandemic shows us the disadvantages and limits of this global economic system and reminds us to rethink the contemporary global economic system, which implies a strong interdependence between the global metropolitan poles where all economic concentration has been built up, with potential reorganisations in the production of wealth and employmen...

COVID-19:  Implications of the Lockdown on Migrant Workers Covid-19: Migrant workers are walking towards their home towns from Mumbai.  Author: Anuj Chaudhary When India is seeing the world's strictest lockdown amid coronavirus outbreak, there are many side-effects of this confinement. All formal enterprises and informal enterprises have halted their work since the lockdown has been announced.
