Visual Studio Code – Python pip not working for virtual environment as it is unable to install packages

I am working on a Python flask web app in visual studio. I am using a virtual environment. I installed requirements from requirements.txt by right clicking on the environment and clicking install from requirements.txt. The packages got populated. Now when I try installing requirements.txt I get the following error:
