    https://theconversation.com/russias-...vaccine-165925
    Regional governments across Russia have launched several efforts to boost vaccinations, mostly to mixed results.

    Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin has announced that the city will give away five cars every week to vaccinated residents. He also deployed a QR-code system to keep the unvaccinated from indoor restaurants and bars.

    But the requirement was later canceled due to technical hiccups and noncompliance from business owners and customers alike.

    Most regional governments have recently made vaccinations mandatory in the service, trade, health care and transportation industries, imposing harsh punishments on employers who fail to have at least 60% of workers vaccinated.

    And popular tourist destinations such as Sochi, a beach resort city on the Black Sea, have also introduced travel restrictions. The city now requires travelers to prove their vaccination status or to arrive with a negative COVID-19 test.

    Although the latest surge in infections has prompted an uptick in jabs, Russia still has a long way to go before life can return to normal. The Kremlin recently admitted it has failed to reach its target of vaccinating at least 60% of Russians by the autumn of 2021.
    Widespread vaccine skepticism

    Mounting evidence has confirmed the effectiveness of the two-shot Sputnik V vaccine.

    Russia has the highest vaccine hesitancy rates in the world. A recent survey shows that 54% of Russians are unwilling to get vaccinated, a level of reluctance that has remained almost unchanged in the past year. Most vaccine detractors say they would refuse to get inoculated under any circumstances or until there are no proven side effects.
    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.

    WTF.

    You don't do research, you just repeat Russian propaganda.

    Like the propaganda about getting an unsolicited mail in ballot.

    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.

    No...it's not borne about any of that shit.

    It's borne from the constant lies you have been propagandizing on JPP and elsewhere.

    Everything you post is propaganda designed to cause unrest in the US.

    Fucking troll.

    missing or ignoring the point as usual. or just your usual Putin bashing -whatever

    Putin is vaxxed putin encourages vaxxing
    https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/30/w...a-vaccine.html
    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

    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.......
