Russian internet troll factories have been blamed for an anti-Pfizer Covid jab smear campaign by a new report from a research institute.

The Network Contagion Research Institute's paper says the aim of the misinformation drive is to promote the country's own Sputnik V vaccine.

Tactics used by the smear campaign include releasing and promoting negative coverage of Pfizer and targeting specific countries.

The report says one unusual approach saw marketing firms from Russia directly go to popular figures to try and get them to act on their Facebook and Instagram platforms.

It alleges: 'Russian marketing firms have directly approached social-media influencers in France.

'Offering financial compensation for promoting fraudulent, allegedly “leaked” stories about Pfizer vaccine complications.'

NCRI's paper continues: 'In a Council on Foreign Relations blog post, members of Novetta, a disinformation tracking firm, revealed that in the Fall of 2020, well before vaccine makers had released any data to confirm vaccine effectiveness, public opinion of Sputnik V in Africa was suspiciously high.

There is simply too much “misinformation” and “meddling” in free societies. So, clearly “freedom” has to go. [/s]

I’m betting Pfizer fabricated this story to cover their own malfeasance.

Russia ran out of Sputnik. Countries who want it can’t get it.

“Russian internet troll factories”

We’ve got one of those. It’s called the Mainstream Media.

[PCPOET7]

problem is that everyone repeating propaganda pro and con about corvid vaccines and about covid itself. my opinion is that there is a big time psy-ops being ran by multiple groups on covid so who knows where the BS starts when reading info being put out on media.

[mac_truck]

Novetta found that the Russian vaccine had the “second-highest rate of positive quotes (66 percent) in African media coverage” and the “the second-lowest negative perception (11 percent)".

Seems Western globalists are upset that countries in Africa didn't buy into their negative propaganda about the Russian vaccine.

[Hypo2]

Maybe a third Trump impeachment might stop this disinformation...isn’t it obvious Trump is still colluding with the Russians to kill Americans

/s

How much is a grain of salt going for these days?

WHO knows?

It could be aliens working with FauXCHI.

[Truthoverpower]

The vaccine industry is pure evil and fraudulent

Avoid them entirely like you had a really bad relative that wants to get money off for you

[metmom]

And they have even infested FR.

I’ve seen the same accusations on FR by the big pharma vax shills.

[metmom]

Sheesh, I feel like I’m being yanked back to the 1960’s when the Russians were blamed for everything bad in this country.

Flashback time.
