The concern is that the number of people willing to get vaccinated but haven’t is pretty damn small now. The Russian state media has been trying to fuck up the West by pushing out all sorts of anti-vax crap in their foreign operations, but didn’t seem to realize that Russians read that shit too and it blew back. Add to that the sort of conspiratorial mindset that the Kremlin has been too happy to abuse for decades, plus a relaxation of COVID restrictions because of the joke of an election that just happened, and boom.

Now the government has announced all mass events are to be cancelled. Since the election is over, the Kremlin doesn’t have much use for any of them anyways, so there’s that. I assume that this will be enforced arbitrarily based on political needs, like everything else. I can’t think of any way that this will end without everyone getting infected, with the vaccinated doing fine (assuming the other non-Sputnik vaccines actually work), and the rest going full redstate.

Yep. Karma for spreading antivaxx crap in the West is biting them back so ferociously that you’d swear it had Rabies… And yeah, it’s gonna end in a GQP state scenario, if not worse… And as I recall, Sputnik (the two-dose, not the “Light”) appears to be a decent vaccine, tho there were apparently corners cut during development which means you could theoretically get an Adenovirus infection (but it’s not a biggie unless you have certain underlying conditions).
