- By Steph. G. Halston.
- (General Dispatch) – A State Department spokesman announced on Monday that Russian intelligence services through online platforms are disseminating false information about the safety and effectiveness of two of the three commercial brands that are producing the vaccine against covid-19 in the United States.
- Regarding the information issued by some officials who preferred not to reveal their identification, the Wall Street Journal unveiled this ill-healthy smear campaign orchestrated from Russia.
- The objective of this mission is clearly defined, and it is none other than to increase the sales levels of the Sputnik V brand, in order to diminish the reliability of the American vaccine brands which, up to now, have been very well accepted in the market.
- At the same time, Department officials thoroughly investigated the sources and provenance of the information provided, confirming that it does indeed come from Russia.
- Important efforts are being channeled at this moment to deny the information that is circulating around the world through different media. This undoubtedly has a negative impact on the country’s brands.
- The content of the publications is based on the low quality standards and the unreliability of the production process executed by the companies, which at the time of supplying would be yielding unfavorable results.
- According to different opinions, this would not be the first time that Russia resorts to actions of this nature in order to achieve its objectives. Regardless of whom it may affect.
- Antagonistically, countries such as China, Iraq and Russia seek to discredit the Pfizer brand, in their eagerness to position their brand in the market, while American vaccines are becoming more and more effective in people’s bodies.
