Respected Sir,
Greetings,
Sir, I would like to humbly draw your attention towards the Global Natural
Catastrophe, a deadly pandemic, which is heading towards our Goa- Swine Flu,
and which ( when you receive this communication may have taken at least a
few dozen human lives in India) has already started showing dangerous signs
of spreading at an alarming pace.
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the Pune administration
which is the epicenter of this deadly virus in India is seriously planning
to virtually shutdown the city following the Mexican model resulting in an
obvious shift of the epicenter to the State of Goa because of its
vulnerability. The Mexican authorities, the origin point of the H1N1 virus,
as you may be aware, practically locked down the whole city economy to the
check the spread of the viral infection.
Thinking that Goa is safe as well as a tourist destination (and with
adjacent cities having shut their doors), it is quite likely that all
unsuspecting virus-infected tourists from nearby states will gate-crash into
Goa to find respite here. This will eventually pose a grave danger to the
life and economy of this state, converting it ultimately into the second
epicenter of the Swine- Flu Pandemic. Panaji, being the capital city of Goa
(you can imagine) will naturally be the worst affected city by this
phenomenon in India. National Institute of Virology (NIV) has now declared
this virus as airborne!!!
You may be aware that the World Health Organization (WHO) has predicted that
as time passes and considering the sanitation measures prevailing in Indian
sub-continent, at least 33 % of Indian population will be affected with this
deadly pandemic.
To prevent the Swine Flu pandemic outbreak and to spread awareness about
the virus and preventive measure to be taken in event of such an outbreak ,
Indology Goa in association with some governmental and non-governmental
agencies is planning to organise a one day workshop in Panaji, Goa.
In this workshop, medical experts from all the major hospitals in Goa as
well as renowned medical practitioners from the field of Alophathe and
Ayurveda will be invited to deliver their scholarly lecturers about the
preventive measure to be taken in this regard. Representatives from all the
walks of life in Goa including Hospitality and Tourism, major Industrial
Houses, State governments official , academicians, small and medium scale
industries, social and charitable organisations, workers union etc will be
invited to participate in this workshop to clarifies their doubts about
checking the outbreak of Swine Flu in their respective Sector.
A free medical check- up camp ( alophathic and ayurvedic) will also be
organised in this event. All the participants of this workshop will be given
the three layer surgical mask during the proceedings and the expert panel
will explain them about tackling the spread of this H1N1 virus along with
live demonstration. Free saplings of the ayurvedic Gulvale and Tulsi plants
will also be given to the participants along with other promotional
literature such as Swine Flu remedial brochures, Vehicle stickers, T-shirts
etc.
We shall be keep you update about the program schedule of this workshop
within a week's time. We also request you to depute maximum representative
for this workshop to spread awareness among the masses about this deadly
virus. We appeal you to associate with us for this event. We shall not
require any monetary support for this event, but only your support in kind
and good faith.
If you are willing to participate in this event, kindly ask your office to
send us an acceptance and confirmation in this regard.
Anticipating your wholeheartedly co-operation,
Warm regards,
Anjali Mohan Rao.
