Shashi Tharoor On Contracting COVID-19 And Vaccination: Congress Leader Says India Needs Free Vaccine For All

INDIA Team Latestly|

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on June 2 posted a video from his hospital bed where he is undergoing treatment for Covid-19. Tharoor attacked the Centre saying there is no clear policy on how the government plans to vaccinate all Indians by December. Shashi Tharoor wondered how the government plans to vaccinate the entire population by December-end as promised by Union minister Prakash Javadekar recently. Prakash Javadekar recently noted that the health ministry has given a roadmap of producing 216 crore doses by December and how 108 crore people will be vaccinated. Javadekar also rebutted Congress and Rahul Gandhi's claims that it may take three years to finish the exercise to vaccinate the entire population. India has so far administered nearly 22 crore doses after beginning the vaccination drive in January. A total of 4.36 crore people have been fully vaccinated in the country so far, according to the data available on CoWIN.
