Covid-19 vaccine scarcity SOS: Harsh Vardhan slams Opposition-ruled states for politicking 'their failures'

India Today  

Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan on Wednesday slammed Opposition-ruled state governments for their alleged attempts to distract attention from their failure to manage the Covid-19 pandemic. Politicising such a public health issue is a damning indictment of certain political leaders who should know better,” Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan said. MAHARASHTRA GOVT SPREADING PANIC In his letter, Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan slammed the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maharashtra government for its ‘inability to act responsibly during the pandemic’. CHHATTISGARH LEADERS INCITING VACCINE HESITANCY Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan also attacked Congress-led Chhattisgarh government for being ‘perhaps the only government in the world where its leaders were inciting vaccine hesitancy’. “The leaders of the state government have achieved the dubious distinction of being perhaps the only government in the world to have incited vaccine hesitancy,” the Union health minister said.
