Moscow: Sick City

       Well, folks, the pandemic is still around, especially in places where it's not supposed to be around, like the Russyan capitol city, Moscova, home to the Little Dictator: Vladimir Vladimirovich P.   Recent reports from the Dept. of Health in the city note that a 3rd surge of cases has rebounded among the local population.  Several factors are at play in this situation.  The Sputnik vaccine is widely available and has been given to a certain percentage of the country's citizenry, but not enough.  The Russyan citizen is a well known anti-vaxxer.  The citizens have doubts about all things government due to the long -held assertions that the government is responsible for more disasters than remedies.  (see Chernoble).

    Russya was one of the first to release a vaccine against the Covid-19 virus.   It was proven effective in over 50% of the cases, initially, and is safe.  However, getting the vaccine into the arms of people has been difficult.   Hence, another local out break, causing hospitals to fill up again and emergency rooms to be swamped.
