remlin-controlled media is deep in a massive vaccine disinfo campaign, and has been ever since COVID jabs were first introduced. The goal, from the beginning, was simple: to undermine foreign-made inoculations, and promote Russias COVID jabs as the very best.
But now, it seems that the fearmongering is backfiring and impeding the Kremlins push to vaccinate its own people. The sale of counterfeit vaccination certificates is currently the most widespread type of online fraud in Russia, and some are so desperate to dodge the jab that theyre allegedly ordering prosthetic arms to fool medical personnel.
So far, the most fd up story about anti-vaxxers was brought to me by a makeup effects artist who made us costumes for our last shoot. She has a workshop, where they make props and prosthetics, Russian film producer Rosya Skrypnik tweeted last month. Every week someone tries to order a silicone pad that could be applied to the arm, so that the vaccine would be injected into a fake shoulder.

* The rest is behind a paywall. Here is an interesting tidbit, though:
It may soon be coming to Fox News, having been recently mentioned in a clip with Senator Ron Johnson.

(46,088 posts)Unless the doctors/nurses/medical assistants are giving the shot through clothes, how could you get away with that? And even if you had a rolled-up sleeve or took off your shirt, the prosthetic could be obvious to the eye. Only skin and flesh look and feel like skin and flesh. Am I to believe the alcohol swab is sterilizing a pad?

One of these days I'd like 45 or Jervanka to explain the confiscated respirators taken from states that paid for them, and given to Russia.
