India Needs Your Help Now

India is currently facing 3500 deaths per day due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

But this is not why they need your help.

Every year 2,000,000 Indians under 5 die of poverty.

That's 1 every 15 seconds.

That's 5,500 per day.

That's ONLY THE UNDER 5 YEAR OLDS

So why isn't that all over the news?

What about the rest of the population dying of poverty?

Seriously, if you cannot see that this is a cash grab by the powers that be/pharma, aided by the media (all peeing in the same pot) then you are blind. Yes, it's bad, Covid-19 is killing Indians.... but many more have been dying every second of the day due to preventable causes and you didn't care, you don't care.

India's children are impoverished because they breed like rabbits and have children they cannot afford.

Ever been there?
The people just poop on the sidewalk .... literally

It's their own fault then, so we shall let them suffer.... Unless it's Covid then we shall donate. Jeez.

Yep.
Except it's culturally acceptable in India.

The united states has had a decades long war on poverty and has failed miserably.
I'm sure the same attempts would work fine in India though

Indeed, but California has probably been working on it.

OK just to be clear, I've not made a thread about why there is poverty, I'm raising the hypocrisy of the mainstream media and the general public in regards to crying about Covid when there are much bigger killers. The fact Covid has risen in the press is a cash grab....

People cannot make money from curing poverty.

Although, judging by the lack of compassion three answers into the thread, whatever the world's problems are, they will only get worse.

Before the pandemic, Unicef estimated that over 500,000,000 people in India still openly defecated wherever they could, and had no access to toilets. It's not the same kind of problem.

A really interesting question ...

Why is India, the world’s largest vaccine producer, running short of vaccines?

Why is India, the vaccine factory to the world, unable to find enough vaccines for its own people? There is no single answer, but tracking events over the past year reveals a timeline of dysfunction: a period in which government negligence, corporate profiteering, opaque contracting, and the inequities of the global pharma market combined to bring India to this moment of vaccine crisis.....

...On April 30— a precise year since the Oxford-AstraZeneca deal was announced—Adrian Hill’s company Vaccitech, which owns the patent for the vaccine, goes public on the Nasdaq, valued at roughly $464 million. The firm’s single largest shareholder, a company started by Oxford to capitalize on innovations born at the university, is itself part-owned by asset management firms, sovereign wealth funds, and Chinese conglomerates.

Zero to do with cash grab. TPTB can print money out of thin-air, and indenture people by debt at the same time.

But you can volunteer your life and time to a cause of poverty stricken people, that would be setting a good example.

Their Govt. sanctioned Caste system isn't helping their situation either. But they are dumping money into their Space and Nuclear programs while they have literally millions of people dying in the streets.

and throw dead people in the river, and don't eat beef regular.

there's no need for that out of the 29 states in india, it's illegal to kill cows in 24 of them. that's a lot of bacon cheese burgers on the hoof.

It's not a lack of compassion.
There comes a point when people need to take responsibility for their own issues.
Church groups have been going to impoverished countries for a century to help the locals build schools and wells for clean drinking water. Church groups are still going to those same countries to build schools and wells..

Shouldn't they be about to build a school themselves by now?

And yes, the media and people in general are hypocrites.
Rich people are bad but the Kardashians exist.

Well bacon is pig but I get your point.
To add to that there are starving people in the united states and we don't process dead horses for meat.
Other countries eat guinea pigs.

Every culture had it's foibles

That says it all. India operates on a caste system. Follow the money just about explains the whole problem.

The caste system divides Hindus into four main categories - Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and the Shudras. Many believe that the groups originated from Brahma, the Hindu God of creation.

I know op..."Robert" from "card services" has already called me 12 times this morning reminding me.

stop having kids if you can't afford them...

This simple tactic can help a lot of people in every country.

Even with Mother Nature "pruning the branches", India is still suffering from too many people.

Should the rest of us care, if Indians are not willing to help themselves, by reducing the population?
