The infection of the corona epidemic in Maharashtra is rapidly moving towards its new peak. Because of the worsening situation here, the central government has sent 30 specialist medical teams to different districts. These teams of Corona experts will help the officials battling Covid in the state to formulate strategies for corona control. Meanwhile, vaccine doses are on the verge of ending in the state. According to the state government, now there are only one to two days left.
So far, 59,907 cases were reported in the last 24 hours. With this, the total cases increased to 31,73,261. The state recorded 322 corona-infected deaths during this period. The total death toll from Corona in Maharashtra now stands at 56,652.
Vaccine stock to end in Maharashtra
Principal Secretary (Health) Pradeep Vyas said that till Wednesday morning there were about 14 lakh vaccine doses in the state. In many districts, the stock will run out by today or tomorrow. The Center is aware of this and we have told them in writing. He told that if there is a schedule and availability of vaccines, then Maharashtra can easily be given five lakh shots every day. Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope also said that the state needs 40 lakh doses in a week. We are giving vaccines to 4-5 lakh people a day, so if the vaccine is not found, then there can be a big problem. Tope said, "We accept the challenge of putting 6 lakh doses of the center every day, but there should be a vaccine."
Health Minister Rajesh Tope said- Discrimination is happening with the people of Maharashtra
Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope said on Thursday - Some time ago a message has been sent to WhatsApp, it has been said that the central government is giving us only 7.5 lakh vaccine doses. While 48 lakh has been given to Uttar Pradesh, 40 lakh to Madhya Pradesh and almost the same amount has been given to other states. My question is why is Maharashtra being discriminated against?
I immediately spoke to Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan regarding this matter. NCP Chief Sharad Pawar also spoke to him. I told them how far this vaccine is appropriate for a population of 12 crores? After this, the Union Health Minister has assured me that corrections will be done in this matter soon.
Health Minister Tope said that 16 million vaccine doses are required every month and 40 million every week. We want that instead of helping other countries, the central government should come forward to help Maharashtra. The central government is helping us, but not as we need. The population of Gujarat is half that of Maharashtra and there is a dose of 1 crore vaccine, whereas only 1.04 lakh has been given for Maharashtra. He said that we are talking directly to its producer company to stop the black marketing of Remedesvir.
