Incredible! Putin said he would be vaccinated today, but "The Kremlin said on Tuesday it had deliberately decided it would not reveal the name of the Russian-made vaccine which President Vladimir Putin is due to take later on Tuesday."

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Tuesday it had deliberately decided it would not reveal the name of the Russian-made vaccine which President Vladimir Putin is due to take later on Tuesday.

“We are deliberately not saying which shot the president will get, noting that all three Russian (-made) vaccines are absolutely reliable and effective,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

He said Putin, who announced his intention to get vaccinated a day earlier, would probably be vaccinated in the evening and would receive one of the three Russian-made shots.

Peskov said Putin had already done a lot to promote Russian-made vaccines, the most famous of which is Sputnik V. Moscow has also given emergency approval to two other domestic vaccines, EpiVacCorona and CoviVac.

Peskov said that Putin did not like the idea of being vaccinated on camera.

3. Probably one of theirs, but could also be one of our excellent ones. nt

4. That's because he's probably not going to get Pfizer or Astra-Zenica.

I wouldn't doubt if he's already been vaccinated. This is the same kind of bullshit we got with his puppet, Donald.

[PJMcK]

7. This is too simple

Putin is probably getting the Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson vaccine. They're keeping it a secret because he's not getting a Russian vaccine. Why would he? It's probably not safe and he doesn't want the Russian people to know that.

8. He'll be taking a new vax made by Pfizerski

9. So, NOT the one being used in Russia

10. 100% agree. And some countries are looking to order Russian

vaccines...better them than me.

11. I hope it's the Russian-made version called 'novichok.'

I heard it has some pretty awful side effects.

12. Hope it's got some polonium in it

Enjoy your polonium, poisonny prick pootie-poot.

13. Likely not taking a Russian vaccine at all, it will be a good vaccine from the west.

14. On advice from a 'friend' in Florida, Vlad will be injecting bleach into his veins....

and inserting a light bulb up his arse.

15. There are three approved Russian vaccines: Sputnik V, CoviVac, and EpiVac

16. What took so long? Supposedly his daughter got vaccinated back in August.
