As deaths rise, Russian doctors despair at low vaccine rate

With only about a third of Russia’s 146 million people vaccinated against COVID-19, the country has hovered near 1,000 reported deaths per day for weeks and surpassed it on Saturday — a situation that Arbolishvili says “causes despair.”

Even as ICUs have filled in recent weeks, life in Moscow has continued as usual, with restaurants and movie theaters brimming with people, crowds swarming nightclubs and karaoke bars and commuters widely ignoring mask mandates on public transportation.“I think about sleepless nights when we get a huge number of patients who didn’t even bother to use banal protective means,” the internist at Hospital No. 52 said.

Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova, who heads the coronavirus task force, suggested Tuesday that such a nonworking period start Oct. 30 and last through the following week when four of seven days already are state holidays. The Cabinet will ask Putin to authorize the move, which would still keep many businesses in the service sector open.

Authorities have set up vaccination sites in shopping malls and other facilities at clinics where shots are offered without any advance booking and lines. They also have used lotteries, bonuses and other incentives to get vaccinated, without much success. Asked if authorizing imports of foreign vaccines would help, Peskov said the skepticism isn’t limited to domestic shots. So far, the World Health Organization and the European Union has not authorized the use of Sputnik V, and Peskov emphasized that the issue should be resolved on an equal basis.

On Tuesday, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said unvaccinated people over 60 will be required to stay home. He also told businesses to keep at least a third of their employees working remotely for three months starting Oct. 25.

If you were an oligarch in charge of a kakistocracy, you couldn’t imagine a better situation than a virus that wipes out the old, poor & infirm at greater percentages. Why encourage vaccinations then?

Russia has low happiness scores and high alcoholism & suicide rates.

Putin probably didn't expect his own people to fall for anti-vax Russian propaganda.

He's going to get in trouble with Putin for saying that.

This is what you get in a country who’s main export is disinformation.
