Russia’s authorities are opting for persuasion rather than compulsion in what concerns vaccination against the novel coronavirus infection, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday.
"Indeed, the most important task is to vaccinate the population," he said during his video link with Francesco Rocca, President of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). "And we are trying to follow a path of persuasion rather than of compulsion. We are trying to combat biased views and prejudices against vaccination as such."
According to the Russian president, the policy of persuading people in the necessity of vaccination against the novel coronavirus infection is yielding results in Russia.

Factoid: Russia's Sputnik is NOT an mRNA "vaccine". It is a Non-Replicating Viral Vector vaccine, much closer to the traditional Disabled Virus vaccine.
A crappy vaccine. I tried to find reports of blood clots, heart disease, cancers, random deaths after vaccinations -- did not succeed. Obviously, it just does not work.
(Of course, it's the post-Christian countries like ours that are using coercion with this vaccine.)
That's why I posted this.
Of course, it’s the post-Christian countries like ours which is becoming pre-Soviet that are using coercion with this vaccine.
I hate it when the Russians have more freedom than Americans.
Sign zeee papers!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reports at other websites indicate Russian regional governments are using restrictions and vax mandates.
Paths have forks in them and what is at the end of the other path is already described.
Compulsion. That path can be taken at any time.
What happens when persuasion isn't good enough to meet the requirements of some nebulous, ever changing goal?
You know. You were just told.
By hook or by crook.
So it looks like the “free” world is less free than Russia.
I moved to Hungary 6 years ago from the US. Hungary has all available vaccines, you have a choice, and they are free.
Last April I registered for the vaccine. I received a call stating when I could go for the vaccine and I was told the vaccine they were offering was Sputynik V. I accepted it. This vaccine was given to people who are 50+. I don’t know why.
I looked at the available vaccine choices. The Sinopharm and the Sputynik V use the same technology that we received in our previous vaccines. I trust this vaccine more than the others on the market. With that being said I did get Covid. I had a very mild case that was more of a nuisance than suffering. Ten days of quarantine, 4 days of OTC medicine and vitamin cocktails and I am as good as new (time will tell).
The downside is other than a hand full of countries that I will never visit accept the Russian vaccine.
Supposedly I am good for about 6 months since I had Covid and will need a booster then.
The two primary reasons I posted this were Russia seems to be using less coercion particularly from the Federal Government, and to illuminate the Difference in the Vaccine Technology used.
I believe there is significant less risk of serious side effects in the Sputnik V vaccine over the mRNA American vaccines, while they are as effective as the traditional Seasonal Flu Vaccine we have been taking for decades.

The fact that you had Covid and recovered naturally actually gives you the highest immunity against reinfection that you can get. You already have a well functioning immune system AND it is now full prepared.
Yes, it will wear off, but you can count the time in years rather than weeks for the mRNA vaccines.
PS: Please keep the posts from Hungary coming, we need accurate news and observation from Europe.
“Russia’s authorities are opting for persuasion rather than compulsion”
Reports that 175K Russian army on Ukraine border, also posed as persuasive technique.
