Russian autocrat Vladimir Putin will get his coronavirus vaccine on Tuesday, more than three months after the first vaccines became available as only 6.3 million people in the country have received at least one dose of the three available vaccines, the Associated Press reports.
Putin will not likely get his shot in public, a Kremlin spokesperson reported, and the Kremlin has not disclosed which one of the three vaccine types he’ll receive. Repeatedly asked why he has not yet received the vaccine, Putin said in December it was because it wasn’t available to him; at the time, Russia was only providing vaccines to people between the ages of 18 and 60. Putin is 68. Russia has developed the Sputnik V, EpiVacCorona and CoviVac vaccines, and it is planning to provide more than 700 million doses to developing nations like India, South Korea, Brazil and Turkey.
