NEW DELHI - Every morning begins with a sense of dread for Ms Gayathree Devi K T. The Indian doctoral student at Britain s University of Oxford goes through her WhatsApp inbox first thing in the morning to check on her family and other loved ones back home.
She is especially worried about the safety of her mother, who works for a government bank in Mumbai and goes to the office daily. She is yet to be fully vaccinated, and several individuals who work in the same building as her have tested positive for Covid-19 in recent weeks.
Could her mother be next? It is a thought that haunts her as well as her family. It s always, you know, at the back of all our minds that it may just be a matter of days before she tests positive, Ms Gayathree said.
