Possibly even better than Pfizer and Moderna.

Sums up the country well. The vaccine is a small reminder of what its society used to be - one with problems but also one that regularly achieved advanced scientific breakthroughs, and where the idea that people wouldn't get or take vaccines would be laughable. And the refusal to take the vaccine shows what a shithole of a country it is now, where government is broken and public trust is non-existent.

Three cheers for capitalism.

It doesn't really help that their authoritarian leader didn't get vaccinated on camera.

Vaccine hesitancy from leaders of 3rd world countries like Brazil is bad enough. But Putin should be better than "trust me guys, I took the vaccine."

1. Misleading title. It is not a 99.7% vaccination rate of the entire population, only 99.7% of adults.

2. Neither the original source or your terrible source lists the vaccination status of the people who tested positive.

3. As I have shown before when Thuglife13 @Thuglife13 posted a different misleading article about covid in Ireland, hospitalization for covid there is 8x more likely for the unvaccinated than for the vaccinated.

4. Lol

Putin is a genuinely smart guy unlike Bolsonaro. But he still has to swim in the sea of shit he and his buddies poured on his country.

Cultivating right-wing lunacy and overseeing a corrupt regime that turns the non-lunatics into jaded cunts with zero faith in government institutions is always going to backfire at some point, as we have seen everywhere. Russia has just taken it to the next level.

Let me sleep on your couch for 4 months and I will convince you of the evils of your capitalistic existence.
Confirmed: You are the kangaroo.

We have stories + a movie made by a comedian of the adventures of a small scale performer's life being invaded by a stoutly communistic kangaroo.
It also moves in with him.


Don't do it @Lars

Russian distrust of government is hardly a recent phenomenon.

i was with you right up until the last line...capitalism without a free market isn't capitalism. It's collectivism.

Daniel Horowitz has been wrong at every turn.

He's a shameless hack who propagates misinformation AFTER it's been exposed as misinformation because it garners him clicks and engagement. He's everything that's wrong with the "independent" media.

The battle for New York
De Blasio vs The Sanitation Workers

De Blasio is set to enforce vaccination mandate, and in protest it sounds like some sanitation workers are calling in sick to give him a taste of what he's in for.

All city workers must have at least one dose by today at 5 PM or they will be placed on unpaid leave.

Burnt out from it?
Based on my perception of "burned out" I was going to say no to that. However, I wasn't sure how to word where I'm at right now so I hit google up. And Yes! Yes! Yes! I am burned out. Although the preferred term now is 'moral injury.'

I didn't realize how bad I had it. And found some great tips to work through it. Thank you.
