For people who would like to get vaccinated, would you accept the Russian Sputnik V vaccine?

There has been a lot of controversy over Russia's vaccine, Sputnik V, but do you think it should be approved for use in the USA and would you take it?

It is unique from other adenovirus vaccines in that the first and second dose use a different adenovirus in an attempt to circumvent those people who may have adenovirsu immunity which would prevent the vaccine from working on them. But, there has been issues with a lack of transparency which make some people worried.

I shouldn't limit it to the USA - how about - do you think your country should approve its use and would you take it?

The people who get vaccinated are the same people who would worship and obey Hitler if they were a German in 1940.

First off, this is 100% theoretical because Russia does not have adequate supply for even their own people, let alone export capacity. But No. Simply look at the large disparity between claimed COVID deaths and actual Excess Deaths in Russia to get the scope of Russian transparency.

I get that you are just trolling, but, you do know that Israel has vaccinated more of it's population than any other country (percentage wise). Do you really think that any Jewish person living in Germany in 1940 worshiped Hitler?

60 countries worldwide have authorized it's use. Russia has sold 100 million doses to India, but it's also produced in India. India makes most of the worlds supply of vaccine, but specifically are set to produce 852 million doses of Sputnik V in 2021.

Famously, the president of Argentina (one of the countries already using the vaccine), had both doses of the Sputnik V vaccine still tested positive for Covid after that.

So, it's not in any way theoretical.

re: simple answer

russia and china are less trustworthy than 'western' nations.
