The Sputnik V vaccine is vaccinated more than the Argentines than the inhabitants of Russia outside Moscow

Mediazona compared fragmentary data on the number of vaccinated in the regions and found out that now their share is incredibly small. The vaccination campaign did not gain the necessary speed in all subjects except Moscow. If you do not take into account the situation in the capital, it turns out that the Russians received fewer injections of the “companion V” than the inhabitants of Argentina, where Russia has just put 300 thousand doses of the second component of the vaccine.

Vaccination from coronavirus began on December 5, officially the first country in the world began to vaccinate from Covid-19. President Vladimir Putin announced that on January 18, “mass” vaccination should begin.

There are no complete data on how many Russians are in almost a month and a half, the Ministry of Health, responsible for the campaign, has ceased to report data on vaccination in December and does not respond to requests.

The “Vaccine” section appeared on the site “Stopkoronavirus.rf”, but there is no general statistics there. Basically, the heading is filled with announcements: how many doses of the vaccine this or that region expects to receive in the future.

Several officials told Medusa that the summary data on the number of vaccinated ones should soon appear on the site, but when exactly and in what form it is unknown: the Ministry of Health has not yet given the final consent to such a publication.

On Twitter, the Sputnik V vaccine claims that on January 9, 2021, more than 1 million Russians received the drug. Where did this number come from is unknown: if you compare all the regional authorities about the number of vaccinations made, you will get a much more modest number.

The regional authorities do not include data on patients who received a vaccine in clinics not directly subordinate to the All -Russian healthcare system - for example, about Russian Railways, law enforcement agencies and military personnel, as well as those who turned to private clinics. It is unlikely that these categories of citizens are the remaining 680 thousand doses.

The Ministry of Defense claims that by January 15, more than 100 thousand military were received the vaccine. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and the National Guard did not report on vaccination. Mediazone sent requests to the FSIN, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Health, but has not yet received an answer.

The most significant is in Moscow. Formally, in the capital, the vaccine could be obtained by workers in the most risk of infection (this list is constantly expanding); In practice, anyone could get the drug.

In the regions, the situation is much worse - nowhere, except for the capital, the authorities could not instill even 1% of the population. Moscow accounts for 140 thousand injections of the "satellite", while for the rest of Russia - 177 thousand. It turns out that the inhabitants of Argentina, where Russia sent 300 thousand doses of vaccines, are vaccinated better than residents of the Russian regions: on January 15, the country's Ministry of Health reported that 200 thousand people received a satellite.

The Russian authorities do not disclose details, how many vaccines were delivered to the regions. Mediazona collected these data separately: excluding Moscow, which does not report data on the quantity of the “satellite” in warehouses, in Russia there is now about 500 thousand doses of the vaccine in Russia.
