“The main thing is not to feel sorry for the fools who are agitating people not to be vaccinated, they must be punished.” The sharp argumentation of the writer and blogger Dmitry Puchkov. Who advocated the toughest measures against antivaxers from official medicine. Of those who, hiding behind authority and education, can mislead the population.
And first of all, he proposes to take a closer look at the activities of Professor and Doctor of Medical Sciences Vladislav Shafalinov. He is one of the leaders of the organization of doctors against vaccination. He speaks a lot and willingly, among admirers it is considered a kind of voice of reason.
Although he likes to speculate on the side effects of vaccination. In particular, he was afraid of the risk of infertility. Say, this is how the powers that be “solve the problem of overpopulation.”
Such statements, especially for a large audience, all the same Puchkov considers it necessary to check in the framework of a special examination. And, if the commission draws conclusions about anti-science, Shafalinov should be “driven out of the profession.”
“Vaccine skeptic” is on his Instagram profile. Vladislav Shafalinov, a “surgeon”, we note, is not a virologist – he puts this “skepticism” on display.
Here is a recent quote: “omicron has a greater ability to evade the immune response of an artificially immunized body”, that is, the vaccine supposedly only makes it worse.
“An absolutely illiterate statement, because vaccination is just done so that those organisms that get to a person – in a particular case, this omicron viruses have just been neutralized. Therefore, a person was either poorly taught, or he lost this knowledge, “says Vladimir Starodubov, member of the board of the Russian Society for the Organization of Public Health and Public Health, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Or is it a deliberate course to keep people from getting vaccinated? Doctors are preparing for a large-scale arrival of “omicron” in Russia. And Shafalinov, it turns out, is warming up the anti-vaxxers.
“I haven’t heard that humanity has invented any means against the epidemic, except for vaccinations, I haven’t heard … Maybe Shafalinov knows something secret there, but somehow I don’t trust him. in my opinion, no, even minimal medical ethics, responsibility: people get sick and die, and he gives advice! Let’s say, more people will die, there is no need to be vaccinated, “says Dmitry Puchkov (Goblin), journalist, blogger.
Here is another quote from the “vaccine skeptic”. “It’s just that getting sick with the coronavirus is much safer than getting sick with the vaccine.” This is a direct lie, doctors say.
“Take any doctor from the hospital who works in the red zone, and he will tell you how many are vaccinated and how many are not vaccinated. Yes, the vaccinated get into hospitals, but this is one or two, well, three percent, and all the rest 95 percent, of course, this is a person who is unvaccinated! This does not need to be explained, “says Mikhail Kostinov, MD, vaccinologist, head of the laboratory at the Mechnikov Research Institute of Vaccines and Serums of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences.
Apparently, it still needs to be explained – to those who write enthusiastic posts of support to Shafalinov. And he collects money for meetings of doctors of an understandable orientation, laying out bank card numbers.
“I would like our society to not be divided into these conditional and shameful names “vaxer” and anti-vaxer”, like the labels that the Bolshevik regime once stuck to our compatriots and put to waste,” Shafalinov justifies.
The rhetoric is very recognizable – both references about the “regime” and about supposedly “segregation”. And what is all this for? There is a lot on the net about how Shafalinov arranges patients for covid hospitals for a lot of money. Such an intermediary. Income for 2020, according to various sources, is more than three hundred million rubles. Maybe that’s where the anti-vaxxer rhetoric comes from? Less vaccinated means fewer clients.
“It’s not the Ministry of Internal Affairs that should be chasing such doctors with sticks, but the doctors themselves, and if this citizen is talking some kind of frank nonsense from the point of view of doctors, then we should probably ask him to leave the profession, I think so. The whole world is in an epidemic, and Dr. Shafalinov is smarter than everyone,” Dmitry Puchkov is indignant.
Shafalinov is the founder and CEO of several firms, some of which appear at the same address in Moscow, on Leninsky Prospekt. Profile – from “general medical practice” to “trade in cosmetics”. At the same time, Shafalinov is not known in the professional medical environment.
“I haven’t heard of such a doctor, an outstanding surgeon or an outstanding immunologist, but if he says that, well, there were criminal thoughts that they should be deprived of their diploma for such statements,” Vladimir Starodubov, member of the board of the Russian Society for the Organization of Public Health and Public Health , academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Shafalinov and the company even filed a lawsuit with the Supreme Court against the inclusion of coronavirus infection in the list of “diseases that pose a danger to others.” The court refused them, of course, but this did not seem to cool Shafalinov’s anti-vaxxer ardor. What vaccinations when it comes to millions of dollars?
