Has someone’s parents/family back in India been able to get the COVID vaccine? I am trying to get my parents registered to get the vaccine but cannot get the COWIN website to work. Anyone else faced the same issue? Looking for some help. Thanks!

Just ask your parents to call a private clinic/hospital near you. 250 a piece and easy

My parents live in Kolkata. Been looking ip private hospitals where they can get the vaccine.

I think my parents used some aarogya setu app or website

You will need to register though the Cowin app first, then find an appointment. Once appointment is booked, they will receive a text message. Did this for my in-laws sitting in US, via VPN

I tried using NordVPN today and was able to open the Cowin website.

I got my parents vaccinated. Website will work only in India.

That’s what i thought was causing the issue. Might try with a VPN since parents struggle with using tech.

My parents also got vaccine. Just call any private clinic around them and schedule time. It is only Rs. 250 in private as compared to free in govt. hospital

Do they have to register on COWIN prior to this or just call private clinic directly?

Yes. They just walked into a government hospital and got the vaccine within 15 minutes

Just walk-in afaik

Yes, my in laws have gotten the covid shield vaccine

It is very smooth

I was able to download the Arogya Setu app here and enter my mom's India phone no. I did need her to be on the line to get the OTP that came to her mobile. You can use one mobile no. on that app to schedule appointments for multiple people (her and my dad) . They have heard from friends that walk in is absolutely an option in hospitals in the area. May have to wait an hour or so if you go without appointment. This is in Mumbai.

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

Trump’s interview with a TV station in Grand Rapids Michigan. Meanwhile, in the real world - 130k news cases and 1600 deaths in 48hrs.

Therapeutics he is likely referring to would cost Americans millions of dollars, and there is little evidence that they would be effective against COVID.

How much would a 30 day supply of Vyvanse (30mg) cost me after insurance? I know this is going to vary by plan but I'm still curious as to know how expensive of a medication this is.

My pharmacy informed me that the insurance will not cover without authorization from the psych. My psych was wary about this & instead suggested Ritalin during my session. He mentioned that insurance companies want us to first try Ritalin because they are generally cheaper. How much truth is there to this? Thanks!
