Sputnik V is safe!”; “Putin is just ‘playing along’ with the COVID narrative until the petrodollar collapses!”; “Russia is the last bastion of freedom!”…
Alternative media has created an alternative reality about Russia. The Kremlin has embraced all the same soul-raping “public health measures” currently terrorizing the Western world—and people are either in denial or making excuses:
“There is no compulsory vaccination in Russia!”
All 85 federal subjects of the Russian Federation now have vaccine mandates, as well as rules requiring digital “health” certificates for entry to certain businesses, venues, and public institutions. Many regions are denying routine medical care to those without QR codes.
At the federal level, the Kremlin has voiced support for “any measures” that “encourage” Russians to get jabbed—while insisting vaccination remains completely voluntary.
A sample of regional flavors of “voluntary” vaccination in Russia:
In the Novgorod region, children whose parents have not been vaccinated are banned from afterschool clubs and other extracurricular activities.
Digital vaccine passports will be required to use public transport in Tatarstan. The new regulation applies to all residents over the age of 18 without a medical exemption.
In St. Petersburg, a negative PCR test cannot be used to obtain a QR code. This means theaters, museums and restaurants in Russia’s second-largest city are reserved exclusively for the vaccinated and those with proof of prior infection.
Muscovites over the age of 60 have been ordered to self-isolate until the end of February. Those who have been vaccinated or have proof of prior infection are exempt from the rule.
Probably you read somewhere that Vladimir Putin outlawed compulsory vaccination as part of his master plan to destroy the fractional reserve banking system and bring peace and harmony to the world. Someone lied to you. Sorry about that.
“…But Sputnik V is safe!”
Does the Kremlin have access to a time-bending wormhole? Because we keep reading boastful claims about the non-existent results of Sputnik V’s “long-term” (ha-ha) safety and efficacy trials—which are scheduled to end on December 31, 2022.
Like other COVID vaccines, Sputnik V has zoomed through clinical trials, with an “interim” report consisting of six months’ worth of data used as proof of its unassailable long-term safety and efficacy. It didn’t help that this already limited dataset was plagued by controversy (as well as an alarming lack of transparency).
Phase III vaccine trials typically require at least five years of careful observation. For example, the long-term safety study for J&J’s Ebola vaccine—which uses the same Ad26 viral vector platform as Sputnik V—began in 2016 and won’t end until 2023.
Sputnik V: zooming past all the unnecessary red tape
Alexander Redko, chairman of the St. Petersburg Professional Association of Medical Workers, noted in July that declaring Sputnik V “safe” without even waiting for ludicrous-speed clinical trials to end is about as scientific as reading tarot cards. Is he wrong? The Russian government clearly thinks so.
In December 2020, Russia’s health ministry announced it was prematurely ending enrollment for Sputnik V trials, arguing that it would be unethical to administer placebo shots when a proven, life-saving vaccine was already available to the public.
“Everything has now been proven, while the pandemic is ongoing,” Alexander Gintsburg, director of the Gamaleya Center—which developed Sputnik V—explained, just four months after Phase III trials had begun.
The Science was settled in four months?
Science-deniers claim it’s irresponsible to coerce tens of millions of people to get injected with an untested drug, but what these conspiracy theorists don’t understand is that any long-term issueswould have become apparent within four months.
Furthermore, Russia has a robust and transparent system in place for flagging side effects.
The Russian government does not have a VAERS-like database for reporting and monitoring suspected adverse reactions, and doctors who question the vaccine’s safety or efficacy are being threatened with exorbitant fines and prison time.
“The fact is that nothing is registered in Russia at all. Therefore, it is very difficult to understand how many serious complications there are. There are many cases, and we can say that they are related to the vaccine. There is a lot to say. Or you can stick your head in the sand and say that there is nothing at all,” Pavel Vorobyov, Chairman of the Moscow Scientific Society of Physicians, said in a recent interview, making him an anti-science hate speech criminal in the eyes of the Russian government.
Argentina’s health ministry is similarly guilty of High Crimes Against Sputnik V. In October, the South American state revealed that Russia’s flagship vaccine was the nation’s leader when it came to causing adverse reactions, beating Sinopharm and AstraZeneca by significant margins (the full report can be read here):
Why does Argentina hate science?
There are even thought crimes being carried out by Russia’s elected representatives. Duma Deputy Mikhail Delyagin argued in an August op-ed that the government’s own data suggested that mass compulsory vaccination had no clear neutralizing effect and was making things worse.
For months, the Russian government maintained it was basically impossible to be hospitalized with COVID if you were fully vaccinated. When it became obvious that this was a slight exaggeration, Gamaleya’s director claimed 80% of jabbed Russians falling ill with the virus had purchased fake certificates and were lying about their vaccination status. Gintsburg’s tall tale inspired some colorful commentary in Russian media. As one outlet opined:
At first they said that it was enough to get vaccinated once every two years so as not to get sick at all, then once a year, then once every six months. Now it turns out that vaccination does not even really protect against getting into intensive care or death.
And what is the solution? True, the Minister of Health, Mr. Murashko, still claims that there are no deaths among citizens who have received the vaccine. But people do not live on Mars, they, alas, face these deaths of the vaccinated in life ... And then the PR naturally stops working.
It’s doubtful if the PR ever worked. Last month, Deputy Speaker of the State Duma Pyotr Tolstoy conceded that the government had completely failed to convince the public that Sputnik V was safe and effective.
“There are few answers to the questions why those who are vaccinated are ill, why those who are vaccinated die, why there are problems and complications after the vaccinations themselves,” the high-ranking lawmaker said.
The total lack of transparency has spurred the creation of informal databases and Telegram channels where adverse events can be tracked. Instead of stepping up efforts to address safety concerns, the Russian government has compared concerned citizens to terrorists.
The Kremlin and its credulous cheerleaders maintain that there’s no need to worry about long-term safety because Sputnik V is based on the Gamaleya Center’s proven, time-tested viral vector-based delivery platform. For example, Kirill Dmitriev, the Harvard-educated ex-Goldman Sachs banker who heads the Russian Direct Investment Fund (which provides financing for Sputnik V), claimed in an op-ed published by RT:
Russia has benefitted from modifying for COVID-19 an existing two-vector vaccine platform developed in 2015 for Ebola fever, which went through all phases of clinical trials and was used to help defeat the Ebola epidemic in Africa in 2017.
But on Sputnik V’s website, we learn:
But on Sputnik V’s website, we learn:
About 2,000 people in Guinea received injections of Ebola vaccine in 2017-18 as part of Phase 3 clinical trial.
Is Dmitriev really suggesting that a Phase III trial held in 2017-18 helped Guinea defeat Ebola? That’s quite a brave claim, considering Guinea was declared Ebola-free in June 2016 following an outbreak two years earlier. By the time Gamaleya’s magic Ebola slurry arrived in Guinea (as part of a clinical trial), there was no Ebola left to fight. In February of this year, Guinea reported its first Ebola death since 2016. Can Dmitriev or RT offer some clarification here? Send your questions to RT’s famously fearless and objective Russia Desk.
By the way: why would Dmitriev (and Sputnik V’s own website) brag about injecting 2,000 Africans as part of a clinical trial held a year after Guinea was declared Ebola-free? Well, because that’s basically Gamaleya’s greatest triumph—before inventing Sputnik V in record-time.
Alexander Gintsburg, widely credited with ending Guinea’s horrific 2017 Ebola epidemic
Sputnik V is the Gamaleya Center’s first “viral vector-based” vaccine to receive emergency use authorization outside of Russia. Gintsburg—who has been the director of Gamaleya since 1997—has yet to bring a fully approved vaccine to market, despite multiple attempts.
In fact, Gintsburg’s first vector adenovirus vaccine, AdeVac-Flu, resulted in a multimillion-dollar embezzlement scandal.
“[Gamaleya’s] scientists have ‘copy-pasted’ [Sputnik V] from their previous, not accepted by the scientific community, research. In their genetic memory—a criminal case, WHO skepticism and zero drugs introduced into the market,” read the teaser of an investigation published by fontanka.ru in July 2020.
With such an impressive track record, it’s hardly surprising that the Gamaleya Center refers to itself as “the world’s leading research institution.” The Center also has world-leading facilities. Seriously, feast your eyes upon these cutting-edge facilities:
Gamaleya’s world-famous viral vector-based roof shrub (L); a Gamaleya hallway where people are regularly murdered (R)
A lot of Russians are also very impressed by the fact that Sputnik V’s #1 fan (and one of the drug’s original investors) is a friendly banker who is trying to introduce a QR code-based payment system in Russia, and is also developing a digital currency in partnership with JP Morgan.
When your favorite WordPress geopolitical analyst exclaims “Sputnik V is safe!” the appropriate response is: how could you possibly know, and why does the Russian government not want to know?
“…But the Russian government would never deceive its own people!”
In June, the emergence of a highly deadly “Moscow strain”—later deemed a “hypothetical phenomenon”—forced authorities to introduce Russia’s first vaccine mandate in the capital. Other regions followed suit. Yes, the people grumbled—but COVID “cases” immediately began to plummet! COVID “deaths” plateaued! It was a true miracle.
Duma election was a super-spreader event or something?
Then something really strange happened: the amazingly effective (but highly unpopular) coercive COVID policies suddenly stopped working immediately after Duma elections in late September.
What a weird coincidence. Obviously, the ruling United Russia party—which had just secured parliament for another five years after an unexpectedly decisive electoral victory—was forced to impose even more coercive COVID policies. If Russians don’t like it, they can express their dissatisfaction at the polls, in 2026.

n Franta, peste 60 de milioane de măști FFP2 distribuite în unitățile sanitare în unitățile de îngrijire pentru vârstnici și persoane cu dizabilități erau măști neconforme care conțineau grafen:
“ în această etapă, 60,5 milioane de măști FFP2 au fost identificate cu marcaj CE conținând grafen, dintre care 16,9 milioane au fost deja identificate, au fost distribuite în 2020 preponderent către unități sanitare și unități medico-sociale, ceea ce reprezintă 28% din stocurile primite de stat.” -RFI 08/06/2021
Grafenul nu este o conspirație, acest material fiind folosit în medicina pentru capacitatea conductoare a sa, sau in domeniul biotehnologiei si chiar în fabricarea echipamentelor de protecție ale forțelor de ordine, precum și fabricarea măștilor FFP2. Grafenul este profund toxic atunci cand este inhalat de către persoane. De aceea, Agenția Regională de Sănătate din Franța a transmis unităților sanitare sa retragă de îndată acele măști neconforme. Problema este că, dintre cele 60 de milioane de măști achiziționate, o parte au fost folosite. O alta problemă de fond rămâne cea a statului francez care a achiziționat și a dat bani grei pentru 60 de milioane de măști neconforme.
Același lucru se întâmplă și în Germania, unde a izbucnit un scandal de corupție pentru că parlamentari CDU ar fi făcut trafic de influență pentru ca statul german (Ministerul Sanatatii) sa bata palma cu o firmă de apartament, un startup nou care nu exista înainte de pandemie, pentru a fabrica măști de tip FFP2. Finalul? O achiziție publică ridicându-se la o valoare de 700 de milioane de euro, adica 10 euro/mască . Nikolas Löbel, parlamentar CDU, a confirmat că este implicat în afaceri legate de măști de protectie, după informații conform cărora compania sa a câștigat aproximativ 250.000 de euro prin intermediarea contractelor de vânzare cu statul. Un alt parlamentar, Georg Nüßlein, se confruntă cu o anchetă de corupție din cauza acuzațiilor că a primit 660.000 de euro pentru că a intermediat contracte guvernamentale pentru furnizorii de măști FFP2.
Aceste lucruri ne demonstrează încă o dată că pandemia este un mijloc de business și că viețile omenești nu contează. Iar în cazul României având în vedere, scandalul cu măștile neconform despre care s-a spus doar jumătate de adevăr, cealaltă parte a adevărului fiind cea expusă de mine în prima parte a articolului și anume că majoritatea alertelor cu privire la mastile neconforme sunt pentru cele de tip FFP2, sau KN95, adica echivalentul non-UE al FFP2.
De ce a fost lansată informația că ar deveni obligatorii măștile FFP2, dacă nu se intenționa introducerea obligativității purtării măștilor de tip FFP2? De ce au lăsat această informație să circule zile bune dacă nu asta era intenția?
Cum putem să avem siguranța că aceste măști FFP2/KN95 comercializate în România sunt conforme și nu conțin grafen?
Dacă guvernele reușesc să forțeze „toată lumea” sa poarte masca si să fie vaccinată, nici nu mai contează ce este în vaccinuri.
Ceea ce contează este sentimentul de conformitate si mai ales de supunere, generând totodata si un sentiment de „egalitate”, asa cum a fost in comunism.
Conformitatea cu purtarea mastii este ca o uniformă care implica de asemenea supunere si egalitate.
Dacă oamenii vor permite ca astfel de vaccinuri să le invadeze propriul corp și al copiilor lor - acestea fiind ceva absolut personal si intim - pentru a se conforma și pentru a fi la fel sau „egali” cu „toți ceilalți”, cu siguranță nu se vor opune cand le vor fi egalizate averile, folosirea resurselor și stilului de viață..
