“I got the vaccine a few days ago. I don’t know if it will work, but I have heard good things about the Russian vaccine.” American director Oliver Stone, 74, told Russian broadcaster Channel 1. Stone, who toured Russia’s nuclear power plants for an upcoming documentary on climate change, said in the interview (broadcast Monday by the night) who plans to return to Russia for the second dose.
“I am full of hope and I think his vaccine is fine,” Stone added. “I do not understand why it is ignored by the West. The United States in its madness considers Russia and China enemies. I personally do not agree. I think they can become excellent partners with the United States,” concluded Stone.
Russia launched the national distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine late last week, but it was limited to health workers, teachers and social workers. And between 18 and 60 years. The Moscow Times recalls that “experts have warned that it could be harmful to patients aged 60 and over, who develop more severe forms of Covid-19 and have the highest mortality rates.” Stone, at 74, would not be within the recommended age window to get vaccinated with Sputnik V.
