  • FACT CHECK: Did The Russian Embassy In Kenya Put Out This Press Release About Imported Sputnik V Vaccines? An image shared on Facebook purportedly shows a press release from the Russian Embassy in Kenya talking about three companies overpricing Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccines in Kenya. Verdict: False There is no record of the Russian Embassy in Kenya publishing the press release. In statements on its website and social media accounts, the embassy labeled the document as “fake.” Fact Check: In early April, Kenya halted the private importation of COVID-19 vaccines, citing concerns about unlicensed shipments and potential for counterfeit shots, according to Reuters. Some Kenyans were charged up to $70 for a single dose of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine by private medical facilities, The New York Times reported. An image circulating on Facebook claims to show a statement, allegedly from the Russian Embassy in Kenya, that calls out three companies for “over-charging of the vaccine prices.” The supposed press release, dated March 31, bears what appears to be a Russian coat of arms. However, there is no record of the Russian Embassy in Kenya releasing the statement on its website or social media accounts.
