Reported to be over 91% effective in a two dose regimen.

I think this is good. The world needs more supply of the various effective vaccines. The more supplied, the sooner this crap is over.

Taken with Stoli....98% effective.

I wonder how much production capacity and vaccine components is in Russia? That has been the bottleneck for the rest of the world.

I know it is similar to the Aztra Zeneca and J&J vaccines. Not an mRNA vaccine.

That is correct. I'd bet similar capacity problems exist

I got my first pfizer vaccine this morning. They told me not to drink alcohol for a few hours before or after. Alcohol makes it less effective they said.
