The CCD: Anti-vaccination protest has a Russian trace

As previously reported, the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine identified a Russian information special operation aimed at minimizing the level of vaccination of Ukrainian citizens.

In particular, social networks and messengers, as well as Telegram channels, spread reports about the allegedly negative consequences of vaccination.

The implementation of special information anti-vaccination measures by the Russian Federation is confirmed by another protest of COVID-19 vaccination opponents. The participants of the march placed a QR-code on posters “Stop QR-code” sending to the website of the Russian political party “United Russia”.

The Center for Countering Disinformation once again recommends that anyone who has doubts about the need for vaccination, study all information about available vaccines from official sources of their direct developers, consult a family or private doctor or call the Ministry of Health hotline for more information: 0 800 60 20 19.
