Taking into consideration what it is happening in India you are right, but as we know it is incredibly difficult to get people to comply and cooperate and then when we see the awful effects of the pandemic they begin to complain that the governments did not do enough when it is simply impossible for governments to do everything by themselves, they need the cooperation of their population and without that then we will see scenarios like the one we are seeing in India.
Here the entire vaccination program has translated to a giant show down between the ruling party and the opposition party. The opposition ruled states were refusing to take the local vaccine (COVAXIN) saying that the phase 3 trials have not been completed. But now with the vaccine shortage, all these states want vaccine doses for their entire population in one week (fully knowing that it is impractical). The Supreme Court has also stepped in, with one of the activist judges opening another warfront against the government. Things are getting interesting here.
It is so sad that politicians seem unable to think on nothing but politics all the time, they are always trying to get some sort of win out of every single situation that presents itself and while not surprising as I am seeing not the exact same situation but something similar in the sense that the politicians on the opposition to the government are trying to find ways to undermine the government efforts to vaccinate the population, at the same time it is incredibly disappointing since the lives of people are at stake here and not even that is enough for them to put their differences aside.
