From the arrival of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine to Argentina, Russian local media harshly questioned the decision of the government of Vladimir Putin understanding that they gave up almost half of the available doses, leaving aside the health crisis in that country.
In a news agency article Rosbalt, entitled “Die yourself, save Argentina”, demand the delivery of the 300 thousand doses to the government of Alberto Fernandez while in Russia only 700 thousand doses for the local population.
“The authorities quickly sent a fairly large batch of the vaccine available to Argentina, where they issued an urgent permit to use Sputnik V. If we consider that the Argentines will need other 300 thousand doses From the second part of the vaccine, it turns out that the Russian Federation has given this country a large part of the batch of vaccines already produced, “they detailed in the publication.
