"Physically Inactive People Are More Likely To Get Very Sick"

How to Be Physically Active While Social Distancing

Comments:
I am including the CDC link in this blog post as a reviewer contradicted my ebook on pandemic prehab claiming to quote CDC and Goodreads allows only GR links such as this post's in comments.

Human life is important.

Clouds and Sunshine by Rabindranath Tagore Clouds and Sunshine

Part I
It had rained the day before. It was morning time and the pale sunshine and the fragmentary clouds had been taking turns to paint the near-ripe pre-autumnal paddy fields with their goliath paintbrushes. The spread-out canvas was continually changing colors between a bright yellow hue upon receiving direct sunlight, and a pleasant mellow adumbration upon being smeared with the shadows …

Queen of Melody Lata Mangeshkar Died of Post-COVID. Vid of Song Sung by Her with English Translation.

Queen of Melody Lata Mangeshkar, winner of Bharat Ratna and Ordre national de la Légion d'honneur, Padma Bhushan and Dadasaheb Phalke Award of India and many many other ethereal glories, whom the Guinness Book of Records had listed in 1974 as the most recorded artist in history, died on 06 Feb 2022, aged 92, of septic shock with multi-organ failure, having being returned to ventilation on 05 Feb. She had tested COVID-19 negative on 04 Feb 2022, newspapers had reported.

Testing positive on 08 Jan 2022 she had been admitted to Breach Candy Hospital's ICU in Mumbai, India three days later and had undergone treatment for pneumonia. The Wikipedia nor news media carried any info on her booster status but Omicron took her life.

When WHO had advised stopping boosters I had disagreed with the announcement with special regard to the immunocompromised and without replying to my YT comments, WHO had done a volte-face in a few days.

When boosters were unavailable in India, I had messaged my friend and vaccine head Dr. Ram Sevak Sharma, on 14 Dec 2021 suggesting that the solution to the vaccine crisis was money. India would have to invest 1x then or >10x later. PM Modi announced boosters on Christmas Day. However something strange had happened to medical education or something else in a nation of over 1.38 billion to cause this delay. Boosting the aged and healthcare and frontline workers commenced on 10 Jan, two days after Mangeshkar had tested positive with Omicron.

We don't have info on her vaccination status and such issues are often not frankly addressed in India. Many Indians were under the misconception that two doses of Covaxin or Covishield were sufficient to resist infection whereas the U.K. Health Security Agency reported that AstraZeneca's protection against symptomatic infection by Omicron fell to zero at 15 weeks after the second dose, inter alia, the Washington Post said on 16 Dec 2021. Covaxin did not do great with Omicron as per WHO. Boosters were needed.

Doctors on TV channels in Kolkata were wondering how people got infected by Omicron after two doses of vaccine or previous episodes of COVID-19 whereas WHO had specifically pointed to the high possibility of reinfection by Omicron and some immune escape.

Since I cannot reverse the loss of my favorite Hindi playback singer, I translated, "Lag ja gale ki phir" meaning, "Hold me lest", sung by her for the movie, "Woh Kaun Thi", released in 1964. I had linked to her rendition in my eBook, Can Exercise Protect Millions From The Dangers Of COVID-19? which had inspired WHO's Every Move Counts prehab campaign relayed forward by the International Olympic Committee and Hadassah which got me an endorsement from the UNHCHR Dr. Michelle while US CDC ignored prehab. I had intended that Lata Mangeshkar's popular rendition be played at the UN agency while revisiting lung function in the context of vocal music. Here are the song and its English translation.

Song: Lag Ja Gale (Hold Me Lest)
Singer: Lata Mangeshkar
Music Director: Madan Mohan
Movie: Woh Kaun Thi
Lyricist: Raja Mehdi Ali Khan

Translated to English by Ansuman Datta

Hold me lest
Tonight so fair, not return

Hold me lest
Tonight so fair, not return
In this birth, our rendezvous wavers
Hold me lest
Tonight so fair, not return
In this birth, our rendezvous wavers
Hold me—

Today, this hour has been bequeathed on our lucky twosome,
Today, this hour has been bequeathed on our lucky twosome,
Mark me, from near, to your heart’s content
For I know not if you may be so lucky again
In this birth, our rendezvous wavers
Hold me—

Please close up for I can’t in perpetuum
Please close up for I can’t in perpetuum
Let us put our arms around each other’s necks
And weep bitterly
What if such love not shower from our eyes again
In this birth, our rendezvous wavers
Hold me lest
Tonight so fair, not return
In this birth, our rendezvous wavers
Hold me—

I see Saregama Music has uploaded Remembering Lata Mangeshkar | Lag Ja Gale | Mere Khwabon Mein | Ajib Dastan Hai Yeh |Tune O Rangeele at https://youtu.be/HY6973pstTg

When we were children, playback singing and on-screen heroics by greats like Lata Mangeshkar and actors like Amitabh Bachchan respectively would give us plenty to enjoy in movies many of which had irrational storylines. Those movies were immensely popular and my late life sciences teacher Ajit Kumar Sengupta had joked that one would be sent down from heaven on arrival without having watched, "Sholay". Lata Mangeshkar had sung, "Jab Tak Hai Jaan. Jaane Jahan" meaning, "As long as I live, darling" for the movie. Euphoria is the feeling associated with her vivacious strains.
