Russia had been first to market in August, yet most of the richly developed countries held out for an American company to give them a vaccine.
Russia didn’t have enough resources to even distribute it to their own people back then.
What a waste for Russia, as usual, with both PR, mindset and completely botched worldwide sales campaign. And so many people could have been already helped around the world.
Meanwhile the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have a huge fawning press telling people a ton of “maybes” and saying basically nothing concrete but urging everyone and their dog to get it, even if they have antibodies, cause you know, stuff and maybe and trust us this is better! Here is a typical example of the cringe:

Your body normally doesn’t have anything like these little spikes. So the spike protein appearing inside your body can be like a Kanye West fan appearing at a Taylor Swift fan party. Or cottage cheese inside a hot dog. Your immune system then is supposed to say, “hey, this doesn’t belong here,” and generate a response to the spike protein.
By exposing your immune system to a very specific component of the virus, your immune system may be better able to focus specifically on this component, rather than fire off in random directions when it first encounters the virus in a natural infection. This could then potentially lead to a stronger and more persistent immune response than what may occur after a natural infection. Since the immune system is rather complex, more studies are needed to confirm this possibility.
