In Russia, the country’s officials on December 28 also admitted that the number of Covid-19 deaths here was “three times what was previously reported.” A few months ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a low death rate from Covid-19, a sign of “Moscow’s success in fighting the pandemic.”

The Guardian Rosstat said that the number of deaths in Russia from January to November from all causes increased by 229,700 cases compared to last year. In particular, according to Russian Deputy Prime Minister Tatiana Golikova, more than 81% of the increase in mortality during this period was due to Covid-19, which represents more than 186,000 people.
If the updated data is correct, then Russia has the third highest number of deaths from Covid-19 in the world, behind only the United States and Brazil.
Moscow hopes to prevent the pandemic through this month’s vaccination program. Russia is the first country in the world to approve the Covid-19 vaccine. The Russian-made vaccine, called Sputnik V, gave promising results, but was criticized by medical journals for its short clinical trial.
