Russia to supply Sputnik V vaccine to 40 poorer countries

[anatta]

Russia's Sputnik V vaccine is gaining ground in Latin America, Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa.

More than 40 countries have reached deals with the makers of the vaccine, many of which have little ability to access the in-demand shots made by Western companies that are powering vaccination drives in the US and Europe.

Europe: Russia, Belarus, Serbia, Slovakia, Hungary, Armenia, Montenegro, San Marino, Moldova.
Asia: Turkmenistan, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Syria, Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar, Syria, Mongolia, Sri Lanka.
Americas: Argentina, Bolivia, Venezuela, Paraguay, Mexico, Nicaragua, Guyana, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Honduras, Guatemala.
Africa and Middle East: Algeria, Angola, the Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Republic of Guinea, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Iran, Bahrain, Lebanon, Gabon, Egypt, Ghana.

The vaccine is also approved by the Palestinian Authority and by an entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina called the Srpska Republic, the press release said.

This isn't just about public health, of course. There is an advantage for Russia too. The drive to distribute vaccines around the world is a chance to burnish its image abroad and strengthen alliances while most Western nations are laser-focused on their own populations.

The Sputnik dealmaking — pushed on social media and in PR-friendly photo ops — appears part of a trend being dubbed "vaccine diplomacy."

Gamaleya Research Institute, part of Russia’s Ministry of Health, developed a coronavirus vaccine known as Sputnik V or Gam-Covid-Vac.
putnik V is based on the virus’s genetic instructions for building the spike protein. But unlike the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, which store the instructions in single-stranded RNA, Sputnik V uses double-stranded DNA.

Sputnik V can be refrigerated and does not require very low storage temperatures

Its very interesting that Russia keeps successfully getting stuff done in spite of all of the hardships. I am certain that the Chinese are impressed....the Russians are exactly the kind of people that the smart want on their side.

America is most certainly not smart.

trump cannot even spell vaccine, stupid fuck. why is it you retarded cold blooded fish cry and cry about "universal health care" and yet when Trump listens to his advisers who say the fastest and best way to get out a lot of vaccine is to USE FEDERAL FUNDING, TO MAKE SURE ALL AMERICANS HAVE UNIVERSAL ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, WHEN IT COMES TO VACCINE?

where is your insistence on everybody pay for what they get now? why are you not crying about trump being so damn liberal that he uses taxpayer money to make sure people have health care, when you believe if you don't have enough dough for you or your kid's healthcare, tough shit?

any and all democrats would have done more than trump, and faster, and better, as biden is showing now.
