The fight against imperialism and the world of vaccines.

The fight against imperialism must also be waged in the field of medicine.

With the announcement by officials at the Russian Gamaleya laboratory of the discovery of a novel vaccine against various types of cancer, it is necessary to recall what happened about four years ago, when the COVID-19 epidemic emerged.

As is well known, the scientific authorities at that research center were also the first to present to the world a new vaccine dedicated to tackling the scourge that had emerged with deadly effects on populations worldwide.

However, instead of welcoming and celebrating a discovery that could actually help minimize the catastrophic effects signaled by the spread of the new virus, the political and health leaders of the imperialist countries almost unanimously defamed and condemned the vaccine recently developed by the Russian center.

Now, some four years after that episode and after millions of deaths from COVID-19 around the world, we have come to the conclusion that the real "flaw" of the aforementioned vaccine developed by Gamaleya was nothing more than the coincidence that the institute in question is part of the Russian state apparatus.

Therefore, regardless of whether, in practice, the Gamaleya anti-COVID-19 vaccine has proven to be one of the most effective of all those released to the public worldwide, for the imperialist centers, it was doomed from the start because its creators do not belong to the major imperialist centers that seek to keep the peoples of the world entirely subjected to their whims and their desires for domination, both geopolitical and economic.

Therefore, now, with the news regarding the development of a new vaccine to alleviate one of the most serious health problems on the planet, the cure for cancer, we can foresee that similar problems will have to be faced before the world's population can have access to the benefits that the new vaccine clearly indicates it is capable of providing.

The fight against imperialism must also be waged in the field of medicine, and vaccines are undoubtedly an essential part of it. In view of what has just been said, I would very much like to suggest that you carefully watch the video at this link (https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9d02lu), in which the topic is very well addressed.
