Vaccine hesitancy can be mitigated with real leadership. Something your party has yet to learn.
I do not have to frantically google English language websites to know what is going on in Russia, like you do.
I communicate with actual citizens living there.
Vladimir Putin's approach to managing the pandemic falls well short of most of his peers in Eastern Europe and Western Europe.
ROFL.. tell that to blacks and hispanics here.
multi-sourcing on not "frantic" - it's good research practice.I do not have to frantically google English language websites to know what is going on in Russia, like you do.
Relying solely on anecdotal from your friends and relatives, is poor practice
lots of reason from mandatory vaxxing ( which just increases distrust of the vaxx) by employers / to holdovers from the USSR mandatory vaxxing hesitancyVladimir Putin's approach to managing the pandemic falls well short of most of his peers in Eastern Europe and Western Europe.
if you want to drop your intellectual arrogance and learn something besides what your contacts in Russia say -these should be of interest:
Want to skip the vaccine in Russia? You could be suspended from work.

In research that predated the pandemic, Borozdina reveals how perceptions of a technocratic, heartless and incompetent government bureaucracy shape the attitudes of Russian parents towards the vaccination of their children.

When I die, turn me into a brick and use me to cave in the skull of a fascist

Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and Serbia are outperforming the Russian Federation in getting their citizens innoculated.
Words and opinions do not trump math.
That is a reflection on Putin's leadership concerning the pandemic.
Russians are not anti-science mystics anymore than Serbians or Kazakhs are.
Russians have proved over and over they can be mobilized to meet an existential national emergency, and compared to America's bible belt they have a long and demostrated respectful for scientific achievement.
When I die, turn me into a brick and use me to cave in the skull of a fascist
missing or ignoring the point as usual. or just your usual Putin bashing -whatever
Putin is vaxxed putin encourages vaxxing

Speaking at his annual televised call-in show, Mr. Putin spent the opening half-hour trying to convince Russians to get one of the country’s four domestically produced shots. It was the latest instance of a marked change in tone about the pandemic from Russian officials, who for months did little to push a vaccine-wary public to get immunized but are now starting to make vaccination mandatory for some groups.
“It’s dangerous, dangerous to your life,” Mr. Putin said of Covid-19. “The vaccine is not dangerous.”

so you have business mandates, and Putin getting and promoting vaxx, same thing Biden has done
Yet you applaud Biden and blame Putin.. Your bias is self contradictory
Hello ThatOwlWoman,
Sadly, it would not be a big surprise to see right wing extremists attack other parts of the federal government or institutions working on the response to the pandemic. Right wing extremists have taken a pro-COVID position, and appear to be actively trying to spread the disease.
Many feel that by letting the disease take it's course that we can achieve herd immunity sooner and then be done with the pandemic.
This is a very bad idea. We have never gotten even close to herd immunity but we have already overwhelmed hospitals in several regions.
The big problem with the right wing approach is that it results in needless deaths.

hmmm....1.5 deaths per 100,000......as I have said before, math is not my strong point......what's that come to as a percentage death rate?.....I know its higher than dying from a lightning strike, that's 0.33 per 100,000.......
