The text of the day

In Moscow, four Pussy Riot participants were suddenly arrested - and their friends. Why did this happen?

Formally, all those arrested were found guilty of disobedience to the legal order of police officers or in petty hooliganism. True, according to some police reports and, according to the activists themselves, they were arrested due to the suspicions of the security forces that they planned to hold a certain action on the day of the 80th anniversary of the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. Kristina Safonova’s special corner of Medusa gathered everything that was known about the sudden wave of the arrests of Pussy Riot participants and their friends, and came to the conclusion that the version of the action looks small .

Coronavirus

From Monday, in Moscow bars, cafes and restaurants it will be possible to get only through a QR code. How will it work?

Who can get a QR code? Where to go for him? What to do Russians and foreigners not prescribed in Moscow? What to do with minors? We answer in detail these and other questions .

Is it really necessary to revaccinated? And when is it better to do?

Short answer: there is no reason to believe that in the near future someone needs to urgently revaccinated. Moreover, how exactly the immunity works after vaccination, it is still unclear, and it makes sense to wait for more research on this topic. Of course, we have a long answer.

The authorities of the Krasnodar Territory decided to let only vaccinated into the resorts. Tourists are indignant and massively abandon the vouchers

From August 1, only the vaccinated will be allowed to the resorts of the Krasnodar Territory - even Rospotrebnadzor recommends these restrictions. Immediately after the announcement of the authorities, more than 70% of tourists decided to abandon their vouchers. But it was not so easy to do it and return the money. For example, if a couple of days remain before departure, then the tourist may lose most of the money (up to 80%), which he paid for the ticket.

What measures to combat pandemia support the readers of Medusa?

Two -thirds support hard, but short -term restrictions. Our readers called a temporary Lockdown the most effective measure. Only 28% of respondents advocated compulsory vaccination. The vast majority - 85% - are convinced that the authorities should allow the import of foreign vaccines into Russia. Other results of the survey - by the link .

Israel is one of the world leaders in the pace of vaccination. But even there they are forced to introduce restrictions again

In Israel, the incidence of Covid is growing again - despite the fact that 61% of residents are already vaccinated, including 57% - both doses of vaccine. The new surge is caused by the delta strain. The authorities ordered residents from June 25 to wear masks in the premises and recommended that the mask regime during mass events in the open air. On July 1, Israel was going to open borders. Now this decision was postponed for at least a month .

The highest leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vaccinated from the coronavirus Iranian vaccine

Podkast "What happened"

Why don't most Russians want to vaccinate?

About 60% of Russians do not want to make themselves a vaccine from coronavirus. How many skeptics are radically against any vaccinations? How common is the distrust specifically for Russian vaccines (running forward: in fact, it is not particularly large)? What are other skeptics guided? And is it true that the issue of trust in vaccines is related to confidence in the leadership of Russia? Says the director of the Levada Center (recognized as a foreign agent) , sociologist Denis Volkov.
