LONDON — The World Health Organization’s Europe office said it has begun discussions with Russia to try to obtain more information about the experimental COVID-19 vaccine the country recently approved. WHO’s Europe director Dr. Hans Kluge said the agency welcomed all advances in vaccine development but that every vaccine must submit to the same clinical trials.Kluge noted that Russia has a long history of developing and administering vaccines, including those for yellow fever and polio.
“We’re not going through a rushed job of trying to jump to conclusions here,” Smallwood said. “We want to take our time to really understand where the vaccine’s at and to get as full information as possible on the steps that have already been taken.”
What's the purpose of ANY vaccine if 50% of the American people REFUSE to use it? Reason? We've created MASSIVE distrust of anything MEDICAL because of our behavior these past 8 months It's going to take a long time to win that trust back...sorry
It’s not a Russian vaccine I don’t understand PDChina article says that Russia is testing Chinese made vaccine. RUSSIA HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO CREATE A VACCINE 💉. They only now how to kill people by poisoning. ЛёшаЖиви Путин ты сука!
The WHO is colluding with Putin! Dear God!
realDonaldTrump dbongino
They are full of sh$t
MrJonCryer There is no vaccine.
MrJonCryer Interesting that Russia comes up with a vaccine first AllRoadsLeadToRussia
Just noting that vaccines are typically tested on thousands of people for an extended period — even years — before they’re allowed to be certified safe and effective.
The Russians just gave the vaccine to the opposition leader.
Putin just had one of his opponents and critics allegedly poisoned. To hell with Putin and his vaccine.

The Other Crisis: Millions Worldwide Have Lost Access to Abortion and Contraceptives Due to COVID-19While many elected officials in the United States have used the covid-19 pandemic to quietly push for anti-abortion legislation, the rest of the world suffers from a scarcity of contraception and abortion resources. The situation is dire. A new report from Marie Stopes International found that between January and June, across 37 countries, 2 million fewer women received reproductive healthcare than during the same time period the previous year. India accounts for 1.3 million of those women. (Abortions are considered essential services under India’s months-long lockdown, but most women were not informed of the clause.) The study anticipates that the lack of reproductive healthcare during this period will cause 1.5 million unsafe abortions, 900,000 unwanted pregnancies, and 3,000 deaths.
