Does he not read? Does he not understand,” Vardhan said, adding that only on Thursday he had shared facts on the availability of vaccines for the month of July.</p>.<p>“It is July, vaccines have not reached,” Rahul said amid reports of vaccination drive being put off in Mumbai on Thursday due to lack of doses.</p>.<p>“There is no vaccine for the virus of arrogance and ignorance !! Congress must think of a leadership overhaul,” the health minister said, referring to Gandhi’s remarks.</p>.<p>He said 12 crore vaccine doses will be made available to the states in July and the private sector would procure more vaccines for the vaccination drive.</p>.<p>Union Ministers Pralhad Joshi, Piyush Goyal and Anurag Thakur also lashed out at Gandhi.</p>.<p>“He has grown old, but not wise. The prince of Congress continues to wail over vaccines. The vaccination drive is creating new records everyday, but there is no end to Rahul Gandhi cursing the government over lack of vaccines,” Joshi said.</p>.<p>“At least wake up now, prince of Congress,” Joshi said.</p>.<p>Thakur said Gandhi should speak to chief ministers of Congress-ruled states as the Centre had shared full details about availability of vaccines for July a fortnight ago.</p>.<p>“Perhaps Congress governments, who are busy profiteering over vaccines, did not inform him.
