I furnished a list of items to a newly wed couple (South Indian) who are setting up their home in B'lore. This list is indicative & should serve as a ready reckoner just so that they wont have to scratch their head thinking what is needed. Additions/deletions will be there 1/n
Cot - Instead of a Double Cot, suggest go for 2 Single Cots and join them together. This way one gets more space, and it is easy to clean under the Cots. 3/n
4 Pillows
At this stage guest cot is not required
2 Seater Dining Table with 2 Chairs should suffice and saves space
4 Plastic/ Deck Chairs that can be stacked 4/n
Wet Grinder Table Top - 1.5 litres
An Electrical Orange Squeezer is a small but good investment
Microwave oven 20 Litres - Good for reheating
Gas Stove - 3 Burner. Dont buy cooking range. It is a waste 6/n
Pressure Cooker 5 litres - Though everyone likes Prestige, I am a great Hawkins fan, as it is considered to be more safe
Coconut scrapper/Carrot shredder
Tea Stainer
Coffee Filter or Percolator 7/n
Aqua Guard Reverse Osmosis Water Purifier (this is essential) 8/n
Buy a noiseless ceiling fan. You can think of one Table or Pedestial Fan too
Water Heater - 20 Ltrs - good brand 9/n
Go for Steel Wardrobes. Godrej will be very expensive. Try local makes. Ask for the gauge thickness. Take 24/22. 24 for doors and 22 for shelf. 6 Ft wardrobe x 2 nos is enough for now. 10/n
one big bucket to store water and 2 x 20 litre buckets
2 Tables and Office Chairs for official work especially as you might be on WFH
Wifi Router 11/n

1/ One year of destroyed economies, social isolation & deep social splits calls for an anniversary ⬇️thread ⬇️ to celebrate the RT-qPCR manuscript by Christian Drosten (@c_drosten) & Victor Corman (@vmcorman), submitted on 21st Jan 2020 to @Eurosurveillanc. #UnbiasedScience
2/ Before this very publication, virologists were neither treated like superstars, nor were they considered icons or half-gods. In 2009, Drosten almost succeeded in installing the false premise virology could supersede holistic medical sciences as discussed in this thread.
3/ Drosten is a virologist. He neither has any background in epidemiology, nor has he ever worked in the civil service. He also doesn’t have a background in public health. Yet he and his colleagues affect our daily lives to the level of whom to meet up or how to flush the toilet.
4/ Before January 2020, Drosten and Corman were common virologists at Charité Berlin, whenever they were not involved in economic implications (https://t.co/UTDwG8U7Du). Other than that, they looked at coronaviruses in dromedary calves in the Middle East or Africa. 😍 #cute
5/ Finally in Jan 2020, the published paper laid the theoretical grounds for the current pandemic, the RT-qPCR mass testing-religion, for which he was awarded his second German Federal Cross of Merit (he received the first one in 2005 for developing the SARS-CoV PCR test).
