<p style="text-align: justify;">The vaccination drive is progressing at a fast pace across the country. Meanwhile, the Central Government is going to start a new initiative. To speed up the pace of vaccination, the Central Government will provide more vaccines to the states in July. According to reports, the government will give 12 crore vaccination doses to the states and union territories. These 120 million doses will include 100 million shots of Covishield and 20 million shots of Covaxin. However, the question now arises that with these government figures, how will the country achieve the target of making the country fully vaccinated by December 2021.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The state and union territories will be asked by the government to intensify the vaccination campaign. Government reports say that between June 21 and June 27, on an average, more than 0.6 crore doses have been given in the country every day. At the same time, 10.6 crore doses have been given to the people in the month of June.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> Information from Ministry of Health</strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Giving information in this matter, the Ministry of Health said, "Information on when and how much the vaccine dose will be given helps in making a strategy for vaccination. The government then decides where and how many vaccine doses are to be spent and distributed. The Center has prepared a plan to calculate the vaccine doses to be given to the states, which includes proportionate population of the age group of 18 years and above.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Rajasthan Government writes to the Center</strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The states have demanded more Covid-19 vaccines from the Center. The Rajasthan government has written a letter to the Modi government, in which it has stated that the state is facing a shortage of vaccine. To speed up the vaccination campaign, there is a need for more Covid-19 vaccines. Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot wrote in a letter to PM Modi, "More than 70 lakh people have to be vaccinated with the second dose by the end of July 2021."</p>
