Russian Vaccination Crisis
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today that the vaccination level in Russia is too low: ”That is why we have mortality numbers that are so high. We are using every opportunity to make a simple call on all citizens — go ahead and get the shot.”
At the same time, Peskov rejected the idea of imposing fines on those who fail to get the vaccine and emphasized that it’s up to regional authorities to decide whether to tighten coronavirus restrictions.
The elections are over. We assume that unpopular vaccination ideas will be “initiated” from the regions on Kremlin’s order. Moscow will act depending on the reaction without suffering reputation losses.
Kremlin being ready to give regions right to decide on coronavirus restrictions is a joke, because that’s about the only right it is ready to grant them.
